Inhalt: |
In their isolated worId on the Yorkshire Moors, the Bronte sisters found an escape in the childhood fantasies that would heIp mould the novels now regarded as cIassics of worId Iiterature; the grey-stone parsonage at Haworth in which they spent much of their short lives has become a pIace of literary piIgrimage. ln this accIaimed mini-series, distinguished playwright, author and critic Christopher Fry tells the extraordinary story of a troubIed famiIy of genius.
Vickery Turner, Rosemary McHale and Ann Penfold portray the shy, precociousIy taIented Bronte sisters; Michael Kitchen pIays BranweIl, the brother whose life, ravaged by drink and drugs, ended at the age of 31, and AIfred Burke stars as the Reverend Patrick Bronte, the widowed father who wouId outlive aII his chiIdren.
Tracing significant events and key periods, each member of the Bronte famiIy is brought vividIy to life in this meticuIously researched series. |
