By Emily Brontë · 1964

Back to Catalogue
Synopsis

First published in 1847, this novel is set on the Yorkshire moors and is told mainly by the housekeeper Nelly Dean to the tenant Lockwood. Heathcliff, a foundling brought to Wuthering Heights by Mr Earnshaw, forms a fierce bond with Catherine Earnshaw. Her marriage to Edgar Linton of Thrushcross Grange, and Heathcliff's later campaign of revenge, divide two households across a generation. Storm, property, and inherited names shape the second half as the children of the first quarrel come of age. The book is a gothic novel of passion and lineage, not a regional guidebook.
