First sentence: Anne Bronte is usually remembered only as the younger sister of Emily and Charlotte, but she was a talented novelist in her own right who, in the course of her short life (1820-1849), published two novels, Agnes Grey (1847) and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall (1848), as well as contributing a selection of her poetry to a collection of the poems of the three sisters, published pseudonymously as Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell (1846).
