The Complete Poetry of Charlotte Brontë

Charlotte Brontë became famous for her novels, but she also wrote poetry under the pen name Currer Bell, writing her first known poem at the age of 13. Many of her poems were published in collaboration with her sisters and concerned the fictional world of Glass Town, an imaginary world she created with her siblings in their youth. Charlotte further developed this concept and her later poems concerned the imaginary world of Angria, often concerning Byronic heroes. While she was unhappy working as a teacher Charlotte took out her sorrows in poetry, writing a series of spiritual and personal poems, drawing a sharp contrast between her miserable life as a teacher and the vivid imaginary worlds she and her siblings had created.
