"It is well known that Charlotte Brontë claimed that her younger sister Emily, author of Wuthering Heights, was the most gifted member of the extraordinary Brontë family. In both her great novel and in her poems, Emily displayed a genius, artistry, and mystical passion with few parallels in English literature. It is thrilling to see how Denise Giardina has captured the intensity of the brief lives and exceptional talent of this unique family in Emily's Ghost, giving us a new insight into the Brontës' visionary spirit.".
