Book description
Emily Bronte’s only novel was published in 1847, a year before her death at the age of thirty. The saga of two Yorkshire families in the remote Pennine Hills. The book has been interpreted as an historical romance, a ghostly thriller, a psychological love-story, a religious allegory and a nature poem.
This novel is a wild, passionate story of the intense love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine’s father. Humiliated by Catherine’s brother and thinking that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, Heathcliff wants to revenge.
