It is a place he will never forget. There he will come to learn the story of Catherine and Heathcliff: how she was forced to choose between her well-meaning husband and the dangerous man she had loved since she was young. How her choice led to betrayal and terrible revenge – and continues to torment those in the present. How love can transgress authority, convention, even death.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"seemoreenable opened\" id=\"seemore-0\"\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"overview\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEmily Jane Brontë\u003c\/b\u003e was the most solitary member of a unique, tightly-knit, English provincial family. Born in 1818, she shared the parsonage of the town of Haworth, Yorkshire, with her older sister, Charlotte; her brother, Branwell; her younger sister, Anne; and her father, the Reverend Patrick Brontë. All five were poets and writers, and all but Branwell would publish at least one book. Fantasy was the Brontë children’s one relief from the rigors of religion and the bleakness of life in an impoverished region. In 1845, Charlotte Brontë came across a manuscript volume of her sister’s poems. At her sister’s urging, Emily’s poems, along with Anne’s and Charlotte’s, were published pseudonymously in 1846. An almost complete silence greeted this volume, but the three sisters, buoyed by the fact of publication, immediately began to write novels. Emily’s effort was \u003ci\u003eWuthering Heights\u003c\/i\u003e; appearing in 1847, it was treated at first as a lesser work by Charlotte, whose \u003ci\u003eJane Eyre\u003c\/i\u003e had already been published to great acclaim. Emily Brontë’s name did not emerge from behind her pseudonym of Ellis Bell until the second edition of her novel appeared in 1850.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"more-link-wrap opened\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Womb House Books ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52018260574517,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0965\/6247\/9413\/files\/whtoledo.jpg?v=1777502061","url":"https:\/\/wombhousebooks.com\/products\/wuthering-heights-by-emily-bronte","provider":"Womb House Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
