Some of these books I have read before (McCullers, Knowles, Sinclair) but not for a long time.
The Oxford Guide I have wanted for a while, and the Illustrated Brontes are interesting.
I own the DVD of the British series of the same name, and the Brontes are a fascinating family.
There is a great website to track down book sales in your area: Book Sale Finder.
