Juliet Gael is touring the Midwest presenting her novel Romancing Miss Brontë:Kansas City Public Library
Tuesday, April 27, 2010
6:30pm @ Plaza Branch, Kansas City
A native of the American Midwest, Juliet Gael presents her novel, a mix of fact and fiction that captures the passions, hopes, dreams, and sorrows of literature’s most famous sisters.
After penning her 1847 masterpiece, Jane Eyre, Charlotte Brontë’s novel becomes an overwhelming literary success, catapulting the shy and awkward young woman into the spotlight of London’s fashionable literary scene—and into the arms of her new publisher, George Smith. But another man comes calling—the quiet but determined curate Arthur Nicholls.
The event is co-sponsored by Rainy Day Books. The book will be available for sale.

Thursday, April 29.
Juliet Gael reading & signing. 7:00 p.m.
The book blends fact and fiction to reveal the life and passions of Charlotte Brontë, author of Jane Eyre. As she and her sisters publish under pseudonyms, Charlotte sees her family is wracked with loses and is presented with one of the great choices of her life: accept an unexpected proposal that is less than the all-encompassing love she writes about, or live on as an unaccompanied spinster.
Romancing Miss Brontë will be available April 27. To pre-order or reserve
copies, please call (316) 682-1181.

Just finished your book. Brava! I read Juliet Barker's book and though it was well done, I had to pick my emotional spirits up off the floor after reading it. The facts alone are so depressing. Thank you for giving the human heart and motives to this precious life, with such attention to the truth and personal character of Charlotte. I gleaned many life lessons and truisms from her journey. Once again, your book proves that truth is a more curious and valuable tale than any fiction can spin. Thank you.
