Angria & Gondal: The Dream of the Dove-Gray Sisters deals specifically with the "Extended Mind Game" that the Brontë's are left to occupy themselves with in their isolation. They famously lost themselves in -- and wrote extensively about -- imagined worlds: Angria, and Gondal.A month ago, the radio piece was revived in Celle, Lower Saxony, Germany, where a dramatized reading was performed. Many Arno Schmidt novels and stories feature Bargfeld, a hamlet near Celle, where he lived from 1958 until his death.
Much of the dialogue offers a biographical overview of the sisters: more such detail than in the other dialogues, as German-speakers were less likely to know anything about these lives. English readers will be familiar with much that he writes about Emily, Anne, and Charlotte -- and Branwell, of course --, but his focus on this long-sustained fictional world is a useful perspective.
