13 Literary Etsy Finds Every Hardcore Brontë Fan Will Absolutely Love
The Brontë sisters – Charlotte, Emily, and Anne – make up what is probably England’s most famous literary family, for good reason: Their works, which include the classics Jane Eyre , Wuthering Heights , and Agnes Grey , are beautiful and strange, offering compelling narratives about passionate, complicated people, all against the tempestuous landscape of Northern England. Like me, you are a Fan. Not just an “Oh, those books were pretty good” type of fan, but a “My ultimate fantasy is to go to Haworth and frolic about the moors” F-A-N. You already own the complete collected works of all three sisters, including the juvenilia; you’ve seen every Brontë film and television adaptation there is, including the insane MTV version of Wuthering Heights; and you listen to the song “Wuthering Heights” by Kate Bush roughly six times a day. What else can a Brontë fan do to make the world know about her devotion to these amazing writers? Hit up Etsy, of course.
Click through for 13 ways Etsy can help you bring the Brontës into your home and your closet.
