Hannibal Brontë

The Sequim Gazette tells the story of the lost Brontë sister, Evelyn. The story is a bit gory, by the way:

Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë are world renown for their novels. However, few know the story of the fourth Brontë sister, Evelyn.
Though nothing of her original work remains, it was said that Evelyn also exhibited considerable talent with the written word, and in her early years was considered a prodigy.
Because they regarded her as a threat to their own considerable reputations, the older Brontës eventually lured Evelyn from Haworth Parsonage into a nearby wood where they strangled her slowly by feeding her slightly dampened pages from her own manuscripts.
They then removed her liver, cooked it over a small wood fire and enjoyed the results with a touch of red wine and some fava beans.
Remarkably, the Brontë sisters continue today to serve the literary world, in recent years providing in composite a model for Thomas Harris's Hannibal Lecter. (Mark Couhig)

The Republican convention in Tampa gets a Brontë mention in The Guardian:

This storm, as well as providing political journalists with the most obvious pathetic fallacy and metaphor since Emily Brontë wrote Wuthering Heights, is both practically and historically awkward for Romney. (Hadley Freeman)

Martha's Vineyard a setting from a Brontë novel? According to Vineyard Gazette it could be:

As the calender flips toward fall, heralding the end of summer and what are some are calling a profitable season, local business leaders want people to know that there is life past Labor Day. There are hotel rooms and cottages to be had (at cheaper rates), and books to buy for cooler but quieter days at the beach.
“We almost don’t want to let them know about the secret of September,” said Sarah Nixon, the owner of the Menemsha Inn, the Beach Plum Inn, and the Home Port restaurant in Chilmark.
“Because we all think it’s freezing cold and wet and remote,” said Robin Kirk, the chief operating officer for Scout Hotel and Resort Management, which owns the Harbor View Hotel in Edgartown. “It’s actually romantic, haunting, special, a wonderful place of escape. Which if you use the right words . . . ”
“Brontë sisters novels,” finished Dawn Braasch, the owner of the Bunch of Grapes Bookstore in Vineyard Haven. (Sarah Brown)

Svenska Dagbladet (Sweden) reviews the latest album by Dylan LeBlanc:

Dylan LeBlanc – Muscle Shoals-sonen som började skriva låtar som elvaåring – har aldrig behövt växa upp. Han föddes gammal. Och precis som systrarna Brontë bevisar han att personlig erfarenhet inte har något att göra med förmågan att berätta en historia. (Elin Unnes) (Translation)
