In 1842, five years before they would become bestselling authors, Charlotte Brontë and her sister Emily arrived in Brussels.

They were there to improve their French and German, but the years they spent being taught by the charismatic Constantin Heger would do much more than polish their languages: it was a crucial turning point for both their writing and their personal lives.

Based on the Brontës’ essays and Charlotte’s letters and novels, as well as research into the Brussels of the time, this is a fascinating look at a formative period in the lives of two great writers.
