Wuthering Heights

The story of the tragic love of two wild hearts is one of the most popular and recognizable works in 19th-century European literature.

«Wuthering Heights» has been adapted into film multiple times, and references to the plot can be found in many works about destructive passion. Love against the backdrop of gloomy heathland led to the madness and death of the heroes of Emily Brontë's only novel.

Rage, rebellion, and attachment merged into a single whole in the lives of Heathcliff and Catherine. The feelings of the wild foundling for his half-sister are not subdued by logic or morality; they are not governed by human strength, evil fate, or even death. The emotions that completely consumed their master and broke more than one life frightened the Victorian man, but captivated the following generations of readers.

This novel can be loved and it can be hated. One thing is certain — it is extremely difficult to remain indifferent to it.
