Emily Brontë (1818–1848) was an English poet and novelist, best known for her only novel, Wuthering Heights, and her highly original and evocative poetry. Born in Thornton, Yorkshire, Emily was the fifth of six children in the Brontë family, a family that produced several renowned writers, including her sisters Charlotte and Anne. The Brontë children grew up in relative isolation at the parsonage in Haworth, a remote village in the Yorkshire moors, which had a profound influence on their work.
