Albion's Haze of Coffee and Burnt Orange

Some news outlets, like Canadian Press, mark the 206th anniversary of Emily Brontë's birth:

In 1818, English novelist Emily Brontë was born in Thornton, Yorkshire. Bronte was one of three sisters who became famous novelists despite being raised in virtual isolation. Emily's most famous work was her only novel, Wuthering Heights, the story of the passionate love of Catherine and Heathcliff.

Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë

This novel focuses on moral values and the need to discover  our inner selves.

The origin of the toponym Minneapolis is discussed in Star Tribune. Did you know that the city was to be known as Albion?

County Commissioner Alex Moore suggested at that first meeting to name the place Albion, Stevens wrote. Albion had long been used as a synonym for England or Great Britain (like the "cliffs of Albion" in Charlotte Brontë's "Jane Eyre," written five years earlier). (Eric Pearson)

The Telegraph sings the praises of Ilkley:

The town is an excellent jumping-off point for various walks – from three-mile loops along the riverside, to the 80-mile Dales Way and the 50-mile Stanza Stones trail – and its surroundings are magnificent all year round. In spring, Middleton Woods bursts with bluebells; in summer, the heather on the moor starts flowering. Come autumn, the surrounding Wuthering Heights countryside turns into a haze of coffee and burnt orange. Guided walks in and around the town take place throughout the year, as does wild swimming by the Riverside Gardens – even on frosty mornings. (Charlotte Eggleston-Johnstone)

The column of the writer Antonio Muñoz Molina in El País (Spain) included this nice digression:

Desde hace meses no me separo de los poemas de Emily Dickinson, y a través de ella, por esas ramificaciones fértiles de la lectura, he llegado a las poetas que ella admiraba, Emily Brontë, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Christina Rossetti, y hasta he descubierto que también George Eliot, otra de las afinidades de Dickinson, escribió algunos poemas memorables.
