Beschreibung

Gothic, ghostly and glorious. Emily Brontë's tragic novel about the all-consuming, destructive love between the passionate Catherine Earnshaw and the brooding Heathcliff, set against the wild Yorkshire moors; after Catherine marries for social status, Heathcliff returns seeking brutal revenge on everyone who wronged them, leading to cycles of abuse, obsession, and intertwined family feuds across generations at the estates of Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange, ultimately exploring themes of love, class, revenge, and the supernatural.

Über den Autor

Emily Brontë was born on 30 July 1818. Her father was curate of Haworth, Yorkshire, and her mother died when she was five years old, leaving five daughters and one son. In 1824 Charlotte, Maria, Elizabeth and Emily were sent to Cowan Bridge, a school for clergymen's daughters, where Maria and Elizabeth both caught tuberculosis and died. The children were taught at home from this point on and together they created vivid fantasy worlds which they explored by writing stories. Emily worked briefly as a teacher in 1938 but soon returned home. In 1846, Emily's poems were published alongside those of her sisters, Charlotte and Anne, in Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell. The following year Wuthering Heights was published. Emily Brontë died of consumption on 19 December 1848.
