Although I liked the book I found reader very irritating and over dramatic. Her sound of sobbing and emotions irritated the hell out of me.
Wuthering Heights
- Af
- Med
- Forlag
The sole novel of Emily Brontë, who died a year after its publication at the age of thirty, Wuthering Heights is one of the most original classics in the canon of English literature. Set amid the wild and stormy Yorkshire moors, it is the tale of childhood playmates who grow into soul mates, and whose tempestuous natures and obsessive love eventually destroy them and those around them.
High on a windy hill, the old gothic manor of Wuthering Heights is the ancestral home of the lordly Earnshaw family. When kind Mr. Earnshaw adopts Heathcliff, a wild child from the slums, he unwittingly sets in motion a cycle of love and revenge that will possess his family for a generation. Heathcliff is despised and abused by Earnshaw’s son and heir, Hindley, who views him as a rival. But Heathcliff’s tempestuous nature finds its match in Earnshaw’s daughter, Catherine, and the two become inseparable.
When Hindley becomes master of the estate, he forces Heathcliff to work as a degraded hired hand. Cathy, now divided from Heathcliff by social status, decides to marry the civilized Edgar Linton in hopes of gaining leverage to protect Heathcliff from her brother. To her despair, Heathcliff disappears; but he returns a few years later, now a wealthy gentleman, intent on using his new power to ruin Hindley, Edgar, and anyone who dared to drive a wedge between him and Cathy.
Fraught with psychological tension and supernatural atmosphere, Wuthering Heights is a haunting tale of the exalted heights and destructive depths of human passion.

UfatteligtKlogPage-turnerTankevækkendeUforudsigeligWuthering Heights, the masterpiece of Emily Brontë, is a hauntingly beautiful novel that has captivated readers for generations. As a fan of gothic literature, I was thrilled to finally dive into this classic tale, and it did not disappoint.Wuthering Heights tells the story of two families, the Earnshaws and the Lintons, and the complicated relationships between them. The story is narrated by a man named Lockwood, who rents a house near the Earnshaw estate and becomes intrigued by the history of the two families. The novel follows the lives of Catherine Earnshaw, her brother Hindley, and their adopted sibling Heathcliff. One of the most striking elements of the book is its eerie, unsettling atmosphere. The setting of the story, the bleak and rugged moors of Yorkshire, is almost a character in itself, imbued with a sense of mystery and foreboding. The windswept landscape, with its abandoned houses and hidden passageways, creates a palpable sense of danger that keeps you on edge.
