No one can believe that Shakespeare was a real person who wrote all of his own work, yet we have no problem believing that three sisters were all classic writers? Think about it, this is slightly more impressive a set of sisters than the Kardashians!

I figure we have faith in Charlotte, Anne, and Emily because there is better evidence of their lives than of old Billy’s, but considering how we normally trivialize women or depict them as odd for their literary gifts, they are an interesting anomaly in time.
