Let Me In – The Brontës in Bricks and Mortar

Let Me In – The Brontës in Bricks and Mortar by Ann Dinsdale and Sharon Wright is a book that explores the buildings where the Brontës would have lived and visited, and which consequently influenced their writings. 

Sharon spoke to the Brussels Brontë Group on Saturday April 25 about the book and the places that were important to the literary sisters.  

Irene Lofthouse on the Brontës, Boggarts and Brogue

Irene Lofthouse provided a thespian treat for the Brussels Brontë Group with her April 25 talk on the influence of folklore and local stories on the Brontës as they grew up in Yorkshire. 

 

Amongst other things, Irene is an author, writer, storyteller, playwright, actor, director, dramaturg and creative consultant, and she kept her audience on its toes by switching effortlessly between the various dialects that the Brontë children would have been exposed to throughout their lives.
