ISBN: 0679447253 ISBN-13: 9780679447252 Publisher: Everyman's Library OUR PRICE: $18.00 Product Type: Hardcover Published: April 1996 Annotation: As in her novel Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte (1818-1848) united in her poems a sensibility elemental in its force with an imaginative discipline and flexibility of the highest order. This most gifted and most enigmatic sister of the now almost mythic Bronte clan wrote poems that are so arresting in their dramatic situations, in the deep strangeness of their psychology, and in the expert musicality of their versification, that she has come over time to be acknowledged among the finest poets in our language. |
