170 years without Anne Brontë

It is 170 years since Anne Brontë died in Scarborough and a couple of foreign sites put her in the spotlight: TeleSur (Venezuela) and Libreriamo (Italy).

On Twitter, the Brontë Parsonage retweeted a celebratory walk.

Première (France) comments on the first trailer of Jennifer Kent's film The Nightingale.

Il y a assurément du Emily Brontë dans cette première bande-annonce de The Nightingale, nouveau film signé Jennifer Kent, l’auteure du macabre Mister Babadook. Que cela soit dans les costumes du XIX°, la forêt dense et fantomatique, les effusions subtiles d’hémoglobine et le destin tragique de son héroïne. (François Rieux) (Translation)

The Sisters' Room features the 2017 project by Lynn Setterington in Collaboration with the Brontë Parsonage, Sew Near - Sew Far.
