Still in the top 40

The Eyre Guide posts about 'Rochester, Bertha and passion'. AnneBronte.org vindicates 'the kind' William Weightman.

The Great American Read results so far:

Film School Rejects reviews the 1993 film version of The Secret Garden:

It’s also striking just how many grown-up topics The Secret Garden touches on. There’s class antagonism galore, and it’s rich in subtle imagery and nuance, drawing inspiration not from children’s stories but from the books and films that usually fill adult shelves. There’s that same air of menace from the landscape here that there is in Wuthering Heights; both films are set in Yorkshire, an austere and unyielding region of England that has long been associated with gothic horror. There is, too, a shadowy echo of Brontë-esque romantic jealousy in Mary, Dickon (Andrew Knott) and Colin’s uneven friendship. (Farah Cheded)

The Mary Sue gives away a pack of three books, including Brightly Burning by Alexa Donne:

 a science fiction romance that reimagines Jane Eyre in space, just as Charlotte Brontë would have wanted. (Kaila Hale-Stern)

GQ Magazine talks about graphic novels like Kate Beaton's Hark! A Vagrant:

She takes on Batman, Jane Eyre, Queen Elizabeth I and Macbeth, not just examining their real or fictional lives and times, but holding a mirror to how men have always viewed women through the ages. It makes for a kind of history lesson that more children ought to be exposed to. (Lindsay Pereira)

A brooding Brontë mention in The Sydney Morning Herald:

He was tall, smart and brooding in the way that anyone who likes Emily Brontë could appreciate. (Virgie Tovar) 

The Yorkshire Post makes a case for a South Pennines regional park:

The dramatic landscape here has inspired countless writers and artists down the years from Ted Hughes and the Brontës to, more recently, Ben Myers and Ashley Jackson. (Chris Bond)

Living like a local in Leeds on Lonely Planet:

When I want to get out of the city… I drive to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park, set on the type of 18th-century country estate that would have inspired the local Brontë sisters, about a 30-minute trip south of Leeds. (Lorna Parkes)

Dagsavisen (Norway) recommends a new translation of Wuthering Heights:

Emily Brontë
«Stormfulle høgder»
Oversatt av Ragnar Hovland
Skald
Skald forlag fortsetter sin lekkert formgitte serie klassikere oversatt til nynorsk. Det blir spennende å se hva humoristen Hovland planlegger for den ukristelig kristne tjeneren Josephs yorkshiredialekt. (Gerd Elin Stava Sandve) (Translation)

Donne sul Web (Italy) quotes Emily Brontë's poem 'A Little While':

Emily Brontë
“L’uccello muto che siede sulla pietra, | l’umido muschio che gocciola dal muro, | gli sparsi viottoli invasi dalle erbacce, | sono il mio amore – oh, quanto li amo!”
Beh, non potevamo che mettere una poesia nel caso della Brontë, che lasciò al mondo pochi, indimenticabili versi e un unico romanzo, “Cime tempestose”, morendo a soli 30 anni. (M P) (Translation)

A Wuthering Heights mention on watson (Germany):

In Emily Brontës «Sturmhöhe» verzehren sich die reiche Catherine und der arme Heathcliff so heftig nacheinander, bis Gewalt und Tod sie auf immer scheiden. (Simone Meier) (Translation) 

Vogue recommends (surprise, surprise) the Loewe edition of Wuthering Heights.
