The literary sisters behind "Jane Eyre" and "Wuthering Heights" are the Brontë sisters. Charlotte Brontë wrote "Jane Eyre" and Emily Brontë wrote "Wuthering Heights." They, along with their sister Anne Brontë, were English writers known for their significant contributions to literature in the 19th century. The sisters originally published their works under male pseudonyms: Currer Bell (Charlotte), Ellis Bell (Emily), and Acton Bell (Anne). Their novels are now considered classics of English literature.
