  • Enjoyable book. I like the strong characters and the web of deceit and drama is craftly written. My only real annoyance was trying to follow what Joseph's character was saying!

  • I hate to admit that some of the language got in my way while reading this. Anytime Joseph appeared I was utterly lost...but when in the midst of hearing Mrs. Dean tell the story of Heathcliff and Catherine, it was quite easy to get swept up.

Classic novel of consuming passions, played out against the lonely moors of northern England, recounts the turbulent and tempestuous love story of Cathy and Heathcliff. A masterpiece of imaginative fiction, the story remains as poignant and compelling today as it was when first published in 1847.
