There are few more convincing, less senti- mental accounts of passionate love than Wuthering Heights. This is the story of a savage, tormented foundling, Heathcliff, who falls wildly in love with Catherine Earn- Shaw, the daughter of his benefactor, and the , violence and misery that result from their thwarted longing for each other. A book of immense power and strength, it is filled with the raw beauty of the moors and an uncanny understanding of the terrible truths about men and women—an under- standing made even more extraordinary by the fact that it came from the heart of a frail, inexperienced girl who lived out her lonely life in the moorland wildness and died a year after this great novel was published.

Wuthering Heights is an 1847 novel by Emily Brontë, initially published under the pseudonym Ellis Bell.
