Review:
"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" (Jeanette Winterson)
"It is as if Emily Brontė could tear up all that we know human beings by, and fill these unrecognizable transparencies with such a gust of life that they transcend reality" (Virginia Woolf)
"Only Emily Brontė exposes her imagination to the dark spirit" (V. S. Pritchett)

Thoroughly edited and extensively annotated. Lavishly produced on natural, high-quality paper, and affordably priced.
