Brontë hipsters will claim that the actual best Brontë novel is The Tenant of Wildfell Hall, by Anne Brontë. Contrarians like to argue that the best Charlotte Brontë novel is not the most famous, Jane Eyre, but instead Villette or even Shirley. And today – Charlotte Brontë’s two hundredth birthday, is not the day for us to argue. (Or maybe it is! But not here on Hodderscape!) Instead, today is all about celebrating Charlotte Brontë, one of the most superb novelists of the English language (and a Hodderscape favourite).

This year marks 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death. I like to think that if Shakespeare had been around today he’d have been first in line to read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and be able to quote liberally from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. This may be going a bit far, but Shakespeare’s plays are packed with fantastical elements. Witches, ghosts, fairies, people who wear a lot of black, his plays have them all.

You may have noticed that Hodderscape looks a little different today. Formerly, our logo was beautiful, an elegant and stripped-down image featuring a crescent waning moon.
But, as we expand into the future, we find ourselves emblazoned with a new logo. And, trotting by our side, we find our brand-new mascot: Pickwick the dodo.
