Classic Library: Wuthering Heights

If reading and re-reading the Classics is a joy, so is publishing select titles. It is all the more gratifying to present the engaging works of acclaimed writers like Emily Bronte whose Wuthering Heights has retained its special appeal and mark as one of the finest English novels since its publication nearly two centuries ago. Bronte wrote the passionate love story of Catherine Earnshaw and a foundling of her father's, Healthcliffe, who, having been thrown out on the death of Mr Earnshaw by her elder brother, returns to 'Wuthering Heights' in affluence and full of vengeance. Bronte weaves the plot, reminiscent of a poet drifting into the wafts of verse. She draws readers straight into the action on the prime locations - 'Wuthering Heights' and 'Thruscross Grange' - and makes these localities an integral part of the novel.
