The wind is strong on the Yorkshire moors. There are few trees, and fewer houses, to block its path. There is one house, however, that does not hide from the wind. It stands out from the hill and challenges the wind to do its worst. The house is called Wuthering Heights. When Mr. Earnshaw brings a strange, small, dark child back home to Wuthering Heights, it seems he has opened his doors to trouble. He has invited in something that, like the wind, is safer kept out of the house.

Introduction and Notes by John S. Whitley, University of Sussex. Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, leaves Wuthering Heights, only to return years later as a wealthy and polished man. He proceeds to exact a terrible revenge for his former miseries. The action of the story is chaotic and unremittingly violent, but the accomplished handling of a complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the lonely moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature.

Forced to seek shelter one night at Wuthering Heights, Lockwood stumbles upon its tempestuous history: the intense passion between the foundling Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, and her betrayal of him. It is the innocent heirs who must struggle to escape Heathcliff's vengeance.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí mať rovnakú obálku ako je zobrazená tu.

Slavný romantický a dramatický román Emily Brontëové se odehrává v tajuplném prostředí samoty uprostřed mokřin, kam přichází nový nájemce, aby nečekaně prožil strašidelné noční dobrodružství a začal pátrat po osudech nevlídných a drsných obyvatel usedlosti. Objevuje příběh, na jehož počátku stojí nenaplněná láska, cit, jenž jako zhoubný oheň spálil duši a zanechal v ní jenom pustošivou nenávist a celoživotní touhu po pomstě. Heathcliffova neukojitelná krutost po léta ničí životy lidí z usedlosti, pak ale láska, kterou nelze řídit rozumem, znovu zasáhne do osudů hlavních hrdinů.

Harmincéves sem volt még Emily Brontë, amikor - egy esztendővel halála előtt - megírta ezt a regényt, a világirodalom egyik legkülönösebb szerelmi regényét. Valóság és látomás, természet és lélekelemzés, vadság és odaadás furcsa szövedéke a történet, egy magába forduló, romantikus írói lélek költői vallomása a szerelemről és a szenvedélyről. Elemzése kegyetlen mélységeket tár fel, és nyomasztó légkört teremt: titokzatosság, babonák homálya övezi szereplőinek jellemét, a romlás sötét erői csapnak össze és küzdenek egymással, míg végül a tragikus feszültséget ismét a szerelem, a fiatalok, az újabb nemzedék szerelme oldja fel.

The most cherished novel from each of England's talented sisters, in one gorgeously packaged volume. The Bronte family was a literary phenomenon unequalled before or since. Both Charlotte's Jane Eyre and Emily's Wuthering Heights have won lofty places in the pantheon and stirred the romantic sensibilities of generations of readers. This Leatherbound Classics edition unites these two enduring favourites with the lesser known but no less powerful work by their youngest sister, Anne. Drawn from Anne's own experiences as a governess, Agnes Grey offers a compelling view of Victorian chauvinism and materialism. Its inclusion makes The Bronte Sisters a must-have volume for anyone fascinated by this singularly talented family.

"Oneworld Classics" will include the greatest masterpieces of all time, from every literature and genre and will also redefine and enrich the classics canon by promoting unjustly neglected works of enduring significance. Psychological study, ghost story, gothic thriller, historical romance, religious allegory, a fable about fathomless feelings - "Wuthering Heights" has been subjected to countless interpretations and yet always defies categorization. The tale of Heathcliff's and Cathy's ungovernable love and suffering, and the havoc that their passion wreaks on the families of the Earnshaws and the Lintons, shocked the book's first readers, with even Emily's sister Charlotte claiming "Whether it is right or advisable to create beings like Heathcliff, I do not know. I scarcely think it is." Replete with unforgettable characters and situations that have seared themselves into the literary consciousness, Emily Bronte's intense masterpiece is one of the most haunting love stories in the canon of English literature.

In it Emily Bront records the story of the passionate love between Catherine Earnshaw and the wild Heathcliff with such truth, imagination and emotional intensity that a plain tale of the Yorkshire moors acquires the depth and simplicity of ancient tragedy.Upozornenie: Vzhľadom na častejšie obmeny vydaní tejto knihy v zahraničí, kus, ktorý vám zašleme, nemusí mať rovnakú obálku ako je zobrazená tu.
