Gothic, ghostly and glorious. Emily Brontë's tragic novel about the all-consuming, destructive love between the passionate Catherine Earnshaw and the brooding Heathcliff, set against the wild Yorkshire moors; after Catherine marries for social status, Heathcliff returns seeking brutal revenge on everyone who wronged them, leading to cycles of abuse, obsession, and intertwined family feuds across generations at the estates of Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange, ultimately exploring themes of love, class, revenge, and the supernatural.
