By (author): Emily Bronte

Rediscover Emily Brontë's powerful tale of love, violence and obsession.

'May you not rest, as long as I am living. You said I killed you - haunt me, then'

Wuthering Heights is the tale of two families both joined and riven by love and hate. Cathy is a beautiful and wilful young woman torn between her soft-hearted husband and Heathcliff, the passionate and resentful man who has loved her since childhood. The power of their bond creates a maelstrom of cruelty and violence which will leave one of them dead and cast a shadow over the lives of their children.

Emily Brontë's novel remains a stunningly original and shocking exploration of obsessive passion.

'A dark and passionate tale of tortured but enduring love... Mesmerising' Guardian

About Emily Bronte

Emily Brontë was born on 30 July 1818. Her father was curate of Haworth Yorkshire and her mother died when she was five years old leaving five daughters and one son. In 1824 Charlotte Maria Elizabeth and Emily were sent to Cowan Bridge a school for clergymen's daughters where Maria and Elizabeth both caught tuberculosis and died. The children were taught at home from this point on and together they created vivid fantasy worlds which they explored by writing stories. Emily worked briefly as a teacher in 1938 but soon returned home. In 1846 Emilys poems were published alongside those of her sisters Charlotte and Anne in Poems by Currer Ellis and Acton Bell. The following year Wuthering Heights was published. Emily Brontë died of consumption on 19 December 1848.
