What is Charlotte and Emily Brontë : the complete novels about?

The novels of Charlotte and Emily Bronté were among the first romantic novels and are still considered to be among the greatest. The most popular, Jane Eyre, written by Charlotte, and Wuthering Heights, written by her sister, are stories of great passion. Charlotte Bronte's other novels, Shirley, Villette, and The Professor, are equally fine, although less well known. These five marvellous books are collected in this volume. Wuthering Heights, set on the Yorkshire moors, is the classic story of persistent and ruinous passion, the unforgettable story of Heathcliffs obsession with Catherine and her family. Jane Eyre tells of the penniless orphan who became a governess and her love for Mr. Rochester, the master of Thornfield Hall. Shirley, a novel of love and ambition and industrial unrest, set against the background of the Luddite riots that took place in the Yorkshire textile industry in the early nineteenth century, is noteworthy for its sharp acrid humour and great perception. Villette, which many consider Charlotte's masterpiece, is the story of Lucy Snowe, a young woman consumed by hopeless love. Also included in this volume is The Professor, Charlotte's first novel.
