The consequences of their tragic love affair reverberate through the next generation, and the brooding figure of Heathcliff is one of the most unforgettable creations .in English literature. Told through the mouth of the sympathetic old nurse, Nelly Dean, 'Wuthering Heights' combines superb characterisation and narrative with a unique feeling for the moors Emily Bronte knew and loved.
