Some of these were beauties. They were quite dark in appearance. I'm sure I've read certain materials which stated that the Bronte sisters remained secluded throughout their entire lives and never had any significant experiences. However, when reading about Emily, she comes across as a person who had as much life experience as the rest of us. Perhaps the perception of the Bronte sisters being reclusive is not entirely accurate. Emily, in particular, seems to have had a depth of understanding and knowledge that could only have come from living and experiencing life. It makes one wonder if the stories we have heard about their secluded lives are just that - stories. Maybe there is more to the Bronte sisters than meets the eye, and Emily's character is a prime example of this. As we continue to study and learn about these remarkable women, we may discover that their lives were much more complex and interesting than we previously thought.
