Publisher Description
An Apple Books Classic edition.
If you’ve only ever seen Wuthering Heights on screen, you may have an image of Catherine and Heathcliff as the ultimate star-crossed lovers. But that’s just scratching the surface of this iconic Gothic romance. Emily Brontë’s only novel is an unabashedly dark tale of passion and revenge that created shockwaves upon its publication in 1847.
Without spoiling too much, the original Heathcliff is breathtakingly vengeful, cruel, and possessive, not the deeply misunderstood romantic hero of some adaptations. And Brontë’s story does not end happily ever after. After tragedy strikes, Heathcliff haunts the swirling mists of the Yorkshire moors, consumed with possessing a ghost. A must-read for fans of Gothic literature, this novel will appeal to anyone who loves a creepy story.

Wuthering heights
An evergreen marvel by Emily Bronte. I am not too fond of Heathcliff, I think no one is but if we look overall he was alone and the one person he cared the most about chose status over him.
Catherine was a passionate character but her o e wrong choice caused the destruction of many around her.
I liked Edgar Linton the most. He was a giving, caring person who suffered at the end without any fault.
The story describes amazingly of a love gone wrong, a love which can be the death of all. wrong. A love which caused destruction of people around them, left everyone battered and bruised for the choice of one can kill all.
I loved the book, seriously.
hats off to emily bronte
Amazing Novel! This one's truly passionate and full of vivid emotions. Undoubtedly one of the best literary pieces out there, and I could assure that this 5oo page novel is WORTH reading :)
