About
Wuthering Heights is commonly thought of as "romantic", but try rereading it without being astonished by the extremes of physical and psychological violence' Jeanette Winterson Emily Brontë's novel of impossible desires, violence and transgression is a masterpiece of intense, unsettling power. It begins in a snowstorm, when Lockwood, the new tenant of Thrush cross Grange on the bleak Yorkshire moors, is forced to seek shelter at Wuthering Heights. There he discovers the history of the tempestuous events that took place years before: the intense passion between the foundling Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, her betrayal of him and the bitter vengeance he now wreaks on the innocent heirs of the past.
"A classic, dark Gothic tale of passion, revenge, and obsession set on the windswept Yorkshire moors. An exploration of destructive love, isolation, and the haunting consequences of desire. Further viewing: “Emily” film (2022) starring Emma Mackay fictionalises the Brontë sister and how she came to write Wuthering Heights - with an incredible music score by composer Abel Korzeniowski." - Madison Willing, Sendb00ks artist October 2025
