Review
It is as if Emily Brontë could tear up all that we know human beings by, and fill these unrecognizable transparencies with such a gust of life that they transcend reality. --Virginia WoolfAs I crouched in a corner with a copy of Wuthering Heights, I had the sensation that it was not the torch that was lighting up this intimate space, but the book itself. The book was radiant, the words shone. --Jeanette WintersonA masterpiece... I still get shivers down my spine whenever I read the words of Cathy: 'I am Heathcliff! --Bonnie Greer
About the Author
Emily Brontë (1818 - 48) was the second of the three Bronte sisters. Although she wrote poems and stories from a young age, Wuthering Heights was her only novel. Her life was tragically cut short by tuberculosis.
