| Readers write: Train memories, Brontës depiction, people's enemies Posted: 20 May 2017 03:00 AM PDT ![Readers write: Train memories, Brontës depiction, people's enemies]( "Readers write: Train memories, Brontës depiction, people's enemies") There are no more train whistles, but we hear lots of talking, laughing, and people enjoying themselves.

Regarding the March 27 Chapter & Verse blog, " 'To Walk Invisible' brings to life the Brontës and the genius forged on the moors": I recently viewed "To Walk Invisible." It was excellent – much better than the 1946 movie "Devotion." I have read all the Brontë novels and never wondered where they found the material.
