Den nye forpagter på Thrushcross Grange et sted i Yorkshire, mr. Lockwood, besøger engang i 1801 ejeren, en mr. Heathcliff på naboejendommen Wuthering Heights. På grund af vejret bliver mr. Lockwood - åbenbart meget mod mr. Heathcliffs vilje – nødt til at blive og overnatte på Heights. Han indlogeres på et tomt værelse, hvor han bl.a. finder en gammel dagbog fra en vis Catherine Earnshaw, og da han er faldet i søvn, har han et underligt mareridt - eller er det virkelighed? –, hvor en kvinde forsøger at komme ind gennem vinduet … Dette, sammen med den underlige stemning, der hersker mellem beboerne på Wuthering Heights, får mr. Lockwood til at undre sig over, hvad der er sket på stedet før hans ankomst, og da han fæster Ellen Dean som sin husholderske, finder han i hende én, der har været med gennem det hele, og som tilmed er en glimrende fortæller.Af hende får han historien om hittebarnet Heathcliffs og Catherine Earnshaws voldsomme og uudslukkelige kærlighed, som aldrig bliver til noget på grund af Heathcliffs herkomst og Catherines tvungne ægteskab med nabosønnen, den vege Edgar Linton. I fortvivlelse over dette drager Heathcliff bort fra egnen for flere år senere at vende tilbage som en rig og dannet mand, klar til at hævne sig på alle sine fjender - en rå og altopslugende hævn, der strækker sig over henved tyve år og ødelægger tilværelsen for alle de involverede og deres børn."Stormfulde Højder" var Emily Brontës eneste roman. Hun døde af tuberkulose i 1848, året efter dens første fremkomst. Denne udgave er baseret på den første danske oversættelse fra 1851.

Wuthering Heights, Emily Brontë's only novel, was published in 1847 under the pseudonym "Ellis Bell". It was written between October 1845 and June 1846. Wuthering Heights and Anne Brontë's Agnes Grey were accepted by publisher Thomas Newby before the success of their sister Charlotte's novel Jane Eyre. After Emily's death, Charlotte edited the manuscript of Wuthering Heights and arranged for the edited version to be published as a posthumous second edition in 1850.Although Wuthering Heights is now a classic of English literature, contemporaneous reviews were deeply polarised; it was controversial because of its unusually stark depiction of mental and physical cruelty, and it challenged strict Victorian ideals regarding religious hypocrisy, morality, social classes and gender inequality. The English poet and painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti, although an admirer of the book, referred to it as "A fiend of a book - an incredible monster [...] The action is laid in hell, - only it seems places and people have English names there."Wuthering Heights contains elements of gothic fiction, and another significant aspect is the moorland setting. The novel has inspired adaptations, including film, radio and television dramatisations, a musical, a ballet, operas, and a song by Kate Bush. Source: Wikipedia
