Product Information

With over 6 million of the world’s best eBooks to choose from, Kobo offers you a whole world of reading.

When I was waiting for a student to arrive this week I picked up the book and started reading and to be honest I was hooked. News from Nowhere will not obtain personal information from other organisations, and will not share, pass on or sell personal information that we hold about individuals to anyone else. John Sutherland's quirky, informative, perceptive and amusing book on some of the stranger aspects of the Brontës' lives is based on sound scholarship and deep affection for their personal lives. Please note that all our kits are created with genuine Decopatch products which means well defined quality papier mache models, papers that do not tear or bobble when glued ,and glue that gives a professional varnished finish. The majority of pages are undamaged with some creasing or tearing, and pencil underlining of text, but this is minimal.Kein "Lexikon", auch wenn der Titel dies andeutet, sondern eher eine Sammlung kleiner Essays zum Thema "Leben und Werke der Brontes". Distinguished literary critic John Sutherland takes an idiosyncratic look at the world of the Brontës, from the bumps on Charlotte's head to the nefarious origins of Mr Rochester's fortune, by way of astral telephony, letterwriting dogs, an exploding peat bog, and much, much more. Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places.

Dass John Sutherland "klassische" Literatur mit Leichtigkeit angeht und dennoch ernst nimmt, zeigte sich schon an seinen älteren Werken z. Da die vielen Schnipsel der Bronte-Hinterlassenschaft immer noch durchforstet und mühsam gelesen werden (ein Projekt der Bronte-Society), kamen gerade in den letzten zehn Jahre viele interessante Dinge zu Tage, auch manchmal kleine Einzelheiten aus dem Alltag, die Sutherland immer mal wieder einstreut, auch um die Familie Bronte zu entmystifizieren.Without these technologies, things like personalised recommendations, your account preferences, or localisation may not work correctly. Decopatch is very easy to do and mainly involves tearing the papers into pieces and sticking them onto the papier mache model.

I loved reading this book as it was a fresh take on the Brontë history and not to be taken completely seriously. Most of it I knew as I have read a lot about the Brontës and have visited the Brontë museum twice in recent years.
