I’ve just read a selection of his poems, and by her I’ve read Sonnets from the Portuguese and Aurora Leigh. I did read some of her letters when I studied Aurora Leigh, but mostly they were about her writing. You really made me curious about those, though. They do sound very sweet.

So essentially when someone says something nasty about Robert Browning, it’s like they’re saying nasty things about my father.

And also, he wrote good poems. (Robert Browning, not my father.) And he sounds very sweet. Have you ever read their letters to each other from before they were married?
