10 thoughts on “[Book Nerd Miscellany] Anne Brontë/Patti Smith”
I think Patty did some photography recently of dead writers’ rooms. She is very reverent of the past and objects that have significance, no matter how simple. She is such a genuine person; I would love to meet her someday. Thanks, maedez.
Love Patti Smith’s lyrics and music! Not surprised that the Bronte’s have inspired her. Wuthering Heights is a favorite of mine, though Jane Eyre, though lovely in parts, annoyed me at the end.
I love Patti and all of the Bronte ladies, so it is a mix that makes sense to me! I have enjoyed all of their novels, to one degree or another. I like Jane Eyre but prefer Villette.

LOVE this! The house is fascinating, and it is utterly cool that Patti Smith would do a benefit concert there.
Also loved how the clip ended, with the couple dancing outside on the cobblestone street, in the dark.

I don’t know how many times I’ve read Wuthering Heights. Possibly dozens. It never gets less tragic and wonderful.
