A deliciously dark comedy set in the Yorkshire Moors in the mid-19th Century.

The Moors by Jen Silverman is partly inspired by The Brontè sisters Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre.

Set on the bleak Yorkshire moors in the 1840s, this atmospheric dark comedy centres on two lonely sisters, their maid, and a talking dog—all seeking love, power, and fame. Their dreary lives are upended by the arrival of a hapless governess and a moor hen, leading to choices both desperate and destructive.
