The story of Anne's life is told by Ada Harrison, who unfortunately did not live to see proofs of this book; the assessment of Anne's verse and fiction is undertaken by the poet and critic, Derek Stanford. The issues they raise, and their general conclusions, may be regarded as controversial; but not only have they made a number of original points in this first book on Anne, they have also, by moving the spotlight, shed fresh illumination on the whole Bronte picture.
Reviews / Votes
Reviews for the original edition:'... Ada Harrison (who has unfortunately not lived to see the book published) and Derek Standford not only conceived the bright idea of devoting a full-length volume to Anne Bronte, the youngest and least written-about of the sisters, but between them have made an excellent and very readable job of it...' - Robert Greacen, Time and Tide
'...Now at last comes a biographical and critical assessment which is worth having. It is written in two parts... Both parts are to be recommended; and if the critical section is the more interesting and original, the biographical chapters show a delicacy of understanding essential to the subject.' - Margaret Lane, Daily Telegraph
'...Derek Stanford's essay on Anne's qualities as poet and novelist, makes her far more vivid than the facts of her life do; for he shows (as the course of her life cannot) that Anne was not really comparable to her sisters at all, not "a pale reflection" but another sort of person altogether.' - Isabel Quigly, Manchester Guardian
'...This establishment of Anne Bronte as woman and writer is a valuable addition to the Bronte literature and deserves high commendation.' - The Scotsman
