Anne Brontë's 192nd birthday

Today marks Anne Brontë's 192nd birthday. She was the only sister not to have one of her works adapted last year. From here we would like to encourage not just regular readers to discover both her novels Agnes Grey and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall as well as her poetry but also script writers, producers, whoever can do something, to try and discover her potential. Agnes Grey is a quiet little masterpiece and we believe the subject matter of The Tenant of Wildfell Hall to be still - and sadly so - relevant today.

192 years after her both Anne Brontë has plenty to say to the world (as she once hoped). It's only a matter now of the world lending her an ear.
