Description: Emily Bronte's novel is set amongst the wind-blasted moors she knew from her life in Haworth in Yorkshire where her father was curate. The dramatic and sombre story of Wuthering Heights is dominated by Heathcliff, a passionate and embittered sould, picked up as a gypsy waif by Mr Earnshaw and then reared in the bosom of his own family.

Heathcliff's growing love fore Earnshaw's daughter Cathy, thought fierce and deep, is ill-fated. Its unhappy repercussions are endured by the next generations until Heathcliff's ardently vindictive spirit finally burns itself out.
