Wuthering Heights

by Emily Brontë

1847 · Novel · Gothic

Open Library OL21177W

Heathcliff and Catherine’s attachment wrecks two households across two generations. The story is told by a tenant and a housekeeper, never by the pair at its center.

About the author

Emily Brontë published one novel. Wuthering Heights is harsher than the love story its reputation sometimes suggests: a study of obsession set on a Yorkshire estate. More of this shelf for Emily Brontë.
