About this Book

Wuthering Heights is the only novel by the English author Emily Brontë, initially published in 1847 under her pen name 'Ellis Bell'. Set on the bleak Yorkshire moors, it concerns two families of the landed gentry and their turbulent relationships with an adopted foundling named Heathcliff. The novel is celebrated for its raw emotional intensity, dark Gothic themes, and the destructive, all-consuming passion between Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, making it a cornerstone of English romanticism.
