Gems of literature in a luxurious and unique design by Marjolein Bastin.

Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights is a bold and unique heartbreaking tale of love, loss and the destructive effect of jealousy and vengefulness.

Es la narración de una historia dramática y trágica. Comienza con la llegada del niño Heathcliff al hogar de los Earnshaw, el cual es traído por el padre de la familia desde Liverpool. Ignoramos de donde ha salido esta criatura que pronto trastornará por completo la tranquila vida de su familia adoptiva así como la de sus vecinos, los Linton. Es una historia de amor y de venganza, de odio y locura, de vida y de muerte. Catherine Earnshaw y Heathcliff desarrollan una relación de dependencia mutua a lo largo de su vida, desde la infancia hasta más allá de la muerte.

Nelly remembers her childhood. As a young girl, she works as a servant at Wuthering Heights for the owner of the manor, Mr. Earnshaw, and his family. One day, Mr. Earnshaw goes to Liverpool and returns home with an orphan boy whom he will raise with his own children. At first, the Earnshaw children-a boy named Hindley and his younger sister Catherine-detest the dark-skinned Heathcliff. But Catherine quickly comes to love him, and the two soon grow inseparable, spending their days playing on the moors. After his wife's death, Mr. Earnshaw grows to prefer Heathcliff to his own son, and when Hindley continues his cruelty to Heathcliff, Mr. Earnshaw sends Hindley away to college, keeping Heathcliff nearby.
