Wuthering Heights (Vintage Classics Bronte Series)

Rediscover Emily Bronte's powerful tale of love, violence and obsession. The perfect read to transport you this Christmas.

'May you not rest, as long as I am living. You said I killed you - haunt me, then'

Wuthering Heights is the tale of two families both joined and riven by love and hate. Cathy is a beautiful and wilful young woman torn between her soft-hearted husband and Heathcliff, the passionate and resentful man who has loved her since childhood. The power of their bond creates a maelstrom of cruelty and violence which will leave one of them dead and cast a shadow over the lives of their children.

Emily Brontë's novel remains a stunningly original and shocking exploration of obsessive passion.

Reviews

  • Emily Bronte’s Tale of all-consuming love is an omnipotent force to be reckoned with. It’s an intoxicating read

    Marie Claire

  • A beautiful gift, and perfect gems for bookworms.

    So Darling

  • A dark and passionate tale of tortured but enduring love... Mesmerising

    Guardian

  • This brilliantly atmospheric Yorkshire saga has only one drawback - Emily never wrote another novel. For me, it is both fantastic but also true to life because the protagonists have such believably fierce emotions

    Kate Mosse

  • When I was 16 I read Wuthering Heights for the first time, and I read it as a kind of oracle; that life is worth nothing if it is not worth everything. Disaster does not matter, intensity does. You can dilute Wuthering Heights, as Mills & Boon and musicals have done. But if you are honest, you cannot escape its central stark premise; all or nothing. The all is not Heathcliff - that is the sentimental version. The all is what Heathcliff represents, which is life itself
