Beschreibung
Wuthering Heights is a storm-lashed tale of obsessive love and corrosive revenge set on the Yorkshire moors, where the orphan Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw's fierce bond warps two generations of the Earnshaw and Linton families, mingling Gothic passion, haunting superstition, and a stark vision of emotional cruelty. The novel probes how class, inheritance, and "proper" gentility shape desire, marriage choices, and who is treated as fully human. Since its mixed early reception, Wuthering Heights has grown into a central work of the literary canon, now celebrated for its radical narrative structure, psychological depth, and pioneering exploration of passion, gender, and class in the Victorian novel. This Warbler Classics edition faithfully reproduces the original 1847 edition and includes the three prefaces written by Charlotte Brontë for the 1850 edition in which she made significant revisions. Also includes an extensive biographical timeline.
