Dilys Gater sets out to show that the Brontes' behaviour and their books resulted from their deprivation of love. The loss of their mother and two elder sisters, combined with the absence of any affection from Mr Bronte, turned them into emotional cripples who were yet able to transform their unhappiness into great literature. Why did the heroines of the Bronte novels crave so painfully for love? There are innumerable books on the Brontes, but INWARD TEMPEST does have something new to say.
