Considered one of the greatest novels of the nineteenth century, Wuthering Heights is a passionate and turbulent story of love and destruction. Mr. Earnshaw, father of Catherine and Hindley, brings home to the Yorkshire moors an orphan from the streets of Liverpool to raise with his own children. Heathcliff, a strange, passionate boy disrupts Wuthering Heights as Cathy comes to love him desperately and Hindley to hate him with equal fervor. Love, passion, and revenge and their consequences bring to Wuthering Heights the depth and simplicity of ancient tragedy.
