The Bronte sisters were born in the 18th century in England and raised by their father after their mother and two older sisters died. They had to take care of their sick father and alcoholic brother. As unmarried women in their 30s, the sisters faced criticism from neighbors who said they were weird for reading novels. Two of the sisters worked as teachers while the third stayed home due to illness. All three wrote novels under male pseudonyms which became very successful. However, their brother and two sisters eventually died from illness, leaving Charlotte as the last surviving Bronte sibling.
