HarperCollins is proud to present its range of best-loved,
essential classics. 'Is Mr. Heathcliff a man? If so, is he mad? And
if not, is he a devil?' Heathcliff, an orphan, wild and unkempt, is
taken in by Mr Earnshaw and raised as his son at Wuthering Heights
on the bleak Yorkshire moors. He is drawn to Earnshaw's daughter
Catherine, and as the pair grow up together they become bound by an
intense and passionate love. But when Catherine's father dies,
Heathcliff is condemned to servitude, and social disparity drives a
wedge between them that will eventually become their downfall.
Poetic, grand in scope, and with complex ideas of morality, social
codes, violence and illness, Wuthering Heights is one of the most
unique and emotive Gothic novels, and is considered Emily Bronte's
masterpiece.
