Penguin Classics: Wuthering Heights
Set on the bleak moors of Yorkshire, Lockwood is forced to seek shelter at Wuthering Heights, the home of his new landlord, Heathcliff. The intense and wildly passionate Heathcliff tells the story of his life, his all-consuming love for Catherine Earnshaw and the doomed outcome of that relationship, leading to his revenge.
Poetic, complex and grand in its scope, Emily Brontë's masterpiece is considered one of the most unique gothic novels of its time.
This edition offers a new preface by Lucasta Miller (author of The Bronte Myth) that looks at the ways in which the novel has been interpreted complementing the introduction by Pauline Nestor that discusses the changing critical reception to the work, as well as Emily Bronte's influences and background.
