Description

"My greatest thought in living is Heathcliff. If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be... Nelly, I "am" 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, mystical, with a timeless appeal, it has become a classic of English literature.
