Publisher Description

The consuming forces of love and nature combine to overtake the lives of Heathcliff and Catherine in this haunting tale set on the wild Yorkshire moors. The story, told brilliantly through a series of flashbacks, begins when Heathcliff, a gypsy waif, is brought home by Catherine's father to live with the family. As the 2 children grow up, they form a strong and tempestuous attachment that grows to command their lives and the lives of everyone around them. Emily Brontë's only novel is also one of the most original and enduring of English literature. Her masterful prose evokes a passionate intensity unmatched in any other work.

"Re-read for nth time this year, just to see if it stands for me still and, oh yes it does do that. I bloody love this book. Emily confirmed as the bravest, weirdest, best Bronte sister. Once went to Haworth to see for myself. Moors cold, windy, wild and vast, exhilarating, not half as grim as the closed, coal-stinking town where Brother Bran died drunk in the gutter. Vicious, judgy, isolated village in tough, unforgiving Yorkshire. No wonder they escaped through books. But how did a sheltered young thing so devastatingly pin down the essence of a passion desperate enough to endure beyond the grave?"

    " I was dumbfounded of the story. I really appreciated the work of Emily Bronte, she's my favorite author and that she wrote the Wuthering Heights well. It was such a nice story yet a complicated one but still a good story to read.. You'll learn what life is... "

    " I can't tell you how much I hated this book. I made myself finish reading it. I didn't like any of the characters involved. And the story being told by a third party was awful. I'm trying to read more of the classics, but I hope this was just a bump in the road and the others I read won't be this bad. "

    " Not a fan, story of love set aside due to class and one man's revenge for the rest of his life. I guess it would be a tragic love story. "

    " This story was ok. Only hard part to follow was the character they were talking about at the time due to trying to keep track of the names (some characters were referred to by different names at different times). "
