Perhaps the 19th century’s most extraordinary English novel

The Guardian publishes a short story: Emily Presents by Alison Gibbs where Emily Brontë features prominently:

For its 74th edition Griffith Review launched an emerging voices competition for new fiction and nonfiction. From hundreds of entries, this is one of the four finalists.

(...)

Things are bad enough with the human rights crusaders without them picturing Emily Brontë travelling with a bunch of horses, tethered in a stall with her nose in a bag of chaff.

In fact, Emily’s container has been beautifully adapted for the purpose. Inside, it is said to resemble her bedroom at the parsonage – dimly lit, with a comfortable bed and embroidered samplers on the wall. This same container will carry her into quarantine and serve as her accommodation while she is in Sydney. Astrid describes it as Emily’s home away from home, although some of Meg’s writers’ festival colleagues, those less enthusiastic, continue to refer to it as her storage unit. (...)

The Sun really needs to find new stories. Now they are reviewing re-runs of The Chase:

The Chase Celebrity Special turned awkward during the latest edition of the quiz show as Anthony Quinlan accidentally insulted the Queen.

Host Bradley Walsh was back on our screens on New Year's Day to present a throwback episode of the ITV series, which first aired in 2020. (...)

Bradley asked: "Which monarch was described by Charlotte Brontë as a little, stout, vivacious lady? 

After a short pause, Anthony replied: "Queen Elizabeth II."

Bradley informed the actor what the correct answer is Queen Victoria. (Dan Laurie)

The Telegraph discusses literary one-hit wonders:

Emily Brontë, Margaret Mitchell, JD Salinger, Ralph Ellison, Harper Lee, Anna Sewell: all wrote a single, game-changing, long-form masterpiece. To that list can be added novelists equally or better known for other art-forms – the poets Sylvia Plath and Boris Pasternak; the playwright Oscar Wilde; the short story writers Alice Munro and Edgar Allan Poe, although Brontë was also an accomplished poet and Salinger a revolutionary short story writer. (...)

Yet spare a thought for the writers who crave the recognition, and possibly the money, yet fail to find it. Emily Brontë wrote Wuthering Heights, perhaps the 19th century’s most extraordinary English novel, partly because her poetry had failed to find an audience (Poems, by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell, featuring the verse of all three sisters and published at their own expense in 1842, sold only two copies). 

Alas, so did Wuthering Heights, which met with pitiful reviews, prompting Brontë’s biographer Winifred Gerin to argue that such catastrophic disappointment prevented Brontë from writing anything again (she died two years later, from tuberculosis, at the age of 30). Yet a letter to Emily from the publisher Thomas Newby in 1848 references a second novel Emily was apparently working on before she died. 

One can scarcely imagine how Emily might have followed Wuthering Heights, whose imaginative power remains startling; either way it’s believed Charlotte destroyed the manuscript, along with the fantasy prose sequence, Gondal, that Emily for years produced with her sister Anne, in order to protect her reputation.

Collider makes a somewhat arbitrary list of films 'similar' to Jane Campion's The Power of the Dog:

Jane Eyre (2011)

While this Gothic classic doesn’t bear an obvious comparison to The Power of the Dog, Mia Wasikowska’s performance as the titular character allows viewers to sympathize with Jane’s absolute aloneness as she arrives to work at Thornfield, intermittently inhabited by the Byronic Mr. Rochester (Michael Fassbender). Jane, ever the outsider, challenges Rochester’s egotism and bitterness while dealing with her own suspicions about the secretive household. Jane’s inner rebelliousness frequently clashes with her Calvinist education and her exposure to Rochester’s shallow class contemporaries, yet she refuses to compromise her dignity throughout. Unlike Rose in The Power of the Dog, she is more than a match for the terrors of the house, even when she must reconcile her love for Rochester with the secrets he has been hiding. Cary Fukunaga’s camera frequently puts Jane at the mercy of natural elements, at odds with both the English wilderness and a wholly indifferent society. (Rebecca Bihn-Wallace)

The writer, and Team-Emily Brontëite Alfons Cervera writes in his column in Levante (Spain):

Y acabo, como muchas otras veces, con los versos de una mujer que se merece otro enorme reconocimiento: Emily Brontë, autora como ustedes saben de la inmensa novela Cumbres borrascosas. Aquí van esos versos: «¿No parece esta tarde, en su ocaso, / dar paso a un día más hermoso?». Que tengan ustedes, a pesar de la que está cayendo, un feliz año nuevo. De todo corazón se lo deseo. De todo corazón. (Alfons Cervera) (Translation)
