Description
Emily Brontë’s 'Wuthering Heights', first published in 1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell, is a dark and passionate novel set among the windswept Yorkshire moors. At its centre is the intense and destructive relationship between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, whose love, resentment and desire for revenge continue to affect two generations of their families. Told through interwoven narratives and shifting perspectives, the novel combines Gothic elements with a complex exploration of love, social class, cruelty, inheritance and obsession. With its brooding landscape, unusual narrative structure and extreme emotional intensity, 'Wuthering Heights' has become one of the most distinctive novels of nineteenth-century English literature.
