We have woven a web in childhood,
An airy and sunny canvas
And in early childhood detected a source
Fresh, uncontaminated water.
Charlotte Brontë
Everyone knows the Brontë sisters:
Charlotte, Emily and Anne.
But what about the brother, Branwell?
And their hidden childhood inventing worlds and languages?
Through unpublished poems and prose, this collection reconstructs the imaginary journey – “the world below,” wrote Charlotte – at the heart of the Brontës’ novelistic creation and gives it its full meaning.
