Wuthering Heights is Emily Brontë's only novel. When released, the novel was considered controversial because it challenged strict Victorian ideals of the day, including religious hypocrisy, morality, social classes and gender inequality.
"My greatest thought in living is Heathcliff. . . . He's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure . . . but as my own being." Wuthering Heights is the only novel of Emily Bronte, who died a year after its publication, at the age of thirty. A brooding Yorkshire tale of a love that is stronger than death, it is also a fierce vision of metaphysical passion, in which heaven and hell, nature and society, are powerfully juxtaposed. Unique and mystical, with a timeless appeal, it has become an essential classic of English literature. Newly designed and typeset by Waking Lion Press.
