Si pudiera invitar a dos personajes literarios a tomar una copa o un café, ¿a quiénes elegiría? A Jane Eyre, de la novela del mismo nombre, y a Karen Blixen, la narradora de Fuera de África. La segunda es un personaje literario, aunque no sea ficticio. (Translation)

(Yolanda Reyes) (Translaion)
The Telegraph and Argus features a picture of a suffragette meeting in Keighley which was
supplied by Mrs Mary Woolridge, of Penzance, who used to work at the Brontë Parsonage. (Jim Seton)
