A Brontë Botany: Flora in the Novels of the Brontë Sisters

The first-ever botanical guide to the Brontës--discover the heather, roses, and trees that shape Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and more, with 60 enchanting natural-history illustrations.

The Brontë novels are famous for their gothic atmospheres and untamed landscapes--but the plants that root these stories are just as vivid as their characters. A Brontë Botany is the first-ever botanical guide to the works of Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë .

Guiding readers from the wild heather of the Yorkshire moors to the cultivated roses of manor-house gardens, Victorian-literature scholar Amy King reveals how flora functions as a living, symbolic force of emotion and fate.

• A fresh lens on Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and more
• 60 full-color natural-history illustrations by Tugce Okay
• A smart, display-worthy gift for readers and plant lovers

Wander the moors and gardens of the Brontë s--and rediscover the novels through their flowers.
