The four volumes forming the complete works of Charlotte Bronte (Currer
Bell).
The wondrous power of Currer Bell's stories consists in their fiery
insight into the human heart, their merciless dissection of
passion, and their stern analysis of character and motive. The
style of these productions possesses incredible force, sometimes
almost grim in its bare severity, then relapsing into passages of
melting pathos--always direct, natural, and effective in its
unpretending strength. They exhibit the identity which always
belongs to works of genius by the same author, though without the
slightest approach to monotony. The characters portrayed by Currer
Bell all have a strongly marked individuality.
