Wuthering Weights - Emily Bronte

Wuthering Heights is a tale of two families, the Earnshaws and the Lintons. The story is set in an extreme landscape on the wild moors, weather-beaten by icy winds, storms and rain. Characters are imprisoned or confined in Wuthering Heights. The ghost of Catherine Linton appears in the opening chapters and we are witness to dreams, visions and supernatural incidents. The story of the Earnshaws and Lintons spans three generations and is full of torture, tyranny and intolerable cruelty. It hinges on the soul consuming and obsessive love between Catherine Earnshaw/Linton and Heathcliff. Their passionate love leads them to various forms of physical and mental madness that transcends death.
