Glass Town

Published by Jonathan Cape in the UK and Abrams Books in the US. A graphic-not-quite-biography of the Brontës, and their Juvenilia. Four children; Charlotte, Branwell, Emily and Anne have invented a world so vivid that they can step right into it. But can reality be enough, when fiction is so enticing? And What happens to an imaginary world when its creators grow up. Plots are spiralling, characters are getting wildly out of hand, and a great deal of ink is being spilt. Welcome to Glass Town.

“Glass Town is a book to savour, a captivating mash-up of fact and fantasy, with something wonderful on every page. I loved it.”

Sarah Waters.
