About
Charlotte Brontë, who dazzled the world with some of literature's most vital and richly drawn characters, fell in love with Arthur Bell, a reserved yet passionate Irishman. After marrying, the pair honeymooned in Ireland – but their joy was destined to be short-lived, as Brontë died just nine months into their marriage. Her genius, and the aura of mystery surrounding her, meant she'd been mythologised even within her own lifetime – a process which only intensified after her death.
Martina Devlin's enthralling new novel Charlotte is a fictionalised account of Charlotte's life, reflecting on the myths built around her by those who knew her, those who thought they knew her, and those who longed to know her. Martina will be joined by Claire Harman, an award-winning writer and critic and author of five major literary biographies, including one on Charlotte Brontë.
To round off the afternoon, acclaimed performer Ruby Campbell will read extracts from some of Charlotte's most famous works.
