We are Three SistersAuthor(s): Blake Morrison\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Nick Hern Books, United Kingdom\nImprint: Nick Hern Books\nISBN-13: 9781848422148, 978-1848422148\nSynopsis\nPoet, playwright and novelist Blake Morrison evokes the lives of the Bront sisters, with a nod to Chekhov's Three Sisters.\n\nAgainst the backdrop of a windswept northern village, three remarkable young women live their lives brightly.\n\nIn Haworth in the 1840s, in a gloomy parsonage, where there are neither curtains nor comforts, Charlotte, Anne and Emily Bront light up their world with outspoken wit, aspirations, dreams and ideas. And throughout their confined lives intensely lived they write.\n\nWith a touch of poetic licence, Morrison shows us the overwhelming humanity, charged emotions and brooding unease which characterise the Bront household - and that of Chekhov's Three Sisters.\n\nBlake Morrison's play We Are Three Sisters was first performed at the Viaduct Theatre, Halifax, in 2011.
