A plate to go with your battered old copy of Wuthering Heights

The Daily Mail Travelchatter's book of the week is The Brontës At Haworth by Ann Dinsdale:

If you want to understand their writings, a trip to the West Yorkshire parsonage - now a fabulous museum - is a must.
For anyone who can't get there, The Brontës At Haworth (Frances Lincoln, £14.99) is a good alternative. In words and pictures, the book brings the Haworth story to life. Just reading it has made me search out my battered old copy of Wuthering Heights. (Frank Barrett)

The Times Ledger reports the opening of the Langston Hughes Community Library in Queens, New York.

State Assemblyman Jeffrion Aubry (D-Corona) praised the decision to landmark the library, which he said he has watched and help financially support through his decades in office.
“I think it’s more than appropriate. This library has blazed new trails,” Aubry said. “It’s an institution that is a model nationwide.”
Aubry, who is black, said Hughes’ writing exemplified the emotions of those in the black community from the 1940s to the ’70s, translating the black experience to the entire world in a way that was never done in literature before.
“While we might appreciate Emily Brontë, we felt Langston Hughes,” Aubry said. (Rebecca Henely)
