On the Moors with the Brontës: Stephanie Cowell on The Man in the Stone Cottage

from History, Books & Wine Podcast

I’m excited to be joined on the show today by guest author Stephanie Cowell. On this episode we’re going to talk about her book, The Man in the Stone Cottage, in which Charlotte Bronte and her sisters become the main characters. The book centers on the period of Charlotte’s life along with her sister Emily (who wrote “Wuthering Heights”) when they were writing and first publishing these great books and hoping to support their family. It delves into Emily’s friendship with a charming shepherd in a stone cottage on the wild moors who no one else has ever seen. Paired with this episode:Stephanie: Malbec from her wine clubEliza: 1858, Red Blend by CamusStephanie's Book:The Man in the Stone CottageWhat Stephanie is Reading:Wuthering Heights by Charlotte BronteTo Chase the Glowing Hours by Katherine KirkpatrickFind Stephanie Online!Find links to Eliza's social media on her website and sign up for her newsletter!Eliza Knight Follow History, Books and Wine on Social Media!Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/HistoryBooksandWineInstagram: @HistoryBksWineSend us Fan MailSupport the show
