Introduction and Notes by John S. Whitley, University of Sussex.
Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and
almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a
foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death,
Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley
and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not
reciprocated, leaves Wuthering Heights, only to return years later
as a wealthy and polished man. He proceeds to exact a terrible
revenge for his former miseries. The action of the story is chaotic
and unremittingly violent, but the accomplished handling of a
complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the lonely
moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make
this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature.
