Illustrated throughout with some ten plates for each volume including reproduction of photographs gravures and documents.<br /> <br /> Born into a religious literary family the early deaths of their mother and their two elder sisters profoundly influenced their writing tremendously. Initially publishing their works under the male pseudonyms Currer Ellis and Acton Bell it was Charlotte's Jane Eyre initially published under the pseudonym Currer Bell that was the first literary and commercial success.<br /> <br /> Growing up in Haworth near Keighley in West Yorkshire Charlotte and Emily had written compulsively from early childhood but their first books of poetry in 1846 attracted little attention. Returning to prose the three sisters released a novel each in the year following Charlotte's Jane Eyre Emily's Wuthering Heights and Anne's Agnes Grey all three of them receiving great critical attention but only Charlotte's Jane Eyre was an instant commercial success. Emily's Wuthering Heights and Anne's Agnes Gray were deemed masterpieces of literature only after their death and the literary works of the three sisters were eventually accepted into the canon of great English literature.<br /> <br /> Bindings with very light wear volume five with small coffee stain on a few pages at foredge.
