The Daily Princetonian features the exhibition
In the Company of Good Books: Shakespeare to Morrison at the Princeton University Library’s Milberg Gallery.
There’s an intimacy to the handwritten, unfinished nature of the manuscripts featured: it’s a tangible record of writers developing their craft. One display holds juvenilia by the Brontë sisters — tiny inscriptions on wax paper from wrappers — evidence of how many female writers of the time educated themselves at home. (Ivy Chen)
Quite the blunder in an article on 'Ten Ending Lines That Melted Our Hearts in Romance Novels' on
Times Now News.
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë
Charlotte Brontë's 'Jane Eyre' is a classic romance novel that has stood the test of time. The closing chapter of this enduring tale captures the essence of finding love and belonging: “Reader, I married him.” Brontë captures the climax of Jane's journey from adversity and loneliness to discovering true love and a place to call home in her succinct but meaningful words. This last statement is an ode to the strength of love, resiliency, and going for one's happiness. (Girish Shukla)
As anyone who has actually read Jane Eyre knows, the books ends with a thought for St John and the words: ‘Amen; even so come, Lord Jesus!’
Yesterday marked the 181st anniversary of the death of Aunt Branwell and
AnneBrontë.org has a post about it.
