The Bront?s’ Christmas invites you to step back in time and explore the delights of a Victorian Christmas through the eyes of our most beloved authors.
While the Bront? family’s celebrations weren’t the most exuberant, Victorian society cheerfully embraced the newfound idea of Christmas as a time for feasts, decorations, the exchanging of gifts and parlor games.
Through a selection of seasonal recipes, letters, poetry and extracts, The Bront?s’ Christmas meanders back in time to explore long-forgotten customs, including Vessel Maids and furmenty; the spice cake that Charlotte took around to her husband’s parishioners; and childhood games enjoyed by the family.
This festive season, curl up and experience a Haworth Christmas.
