Wuthering Heights may be downloaded for free from the ebook catalog. The following is a review by Erica Bauermeister from 500 Great Books by Women:
Wuthering Heights is a classic tale of possessive and thwarted passion, one of the forerunners of today's soap operas and romance novels. The tempestuous and mythic story of Catherine Earnshaw, the precocious daughter of the house, and the ruggedly handsome, uncultured foundling her father brings home and names Heathcliff, is played out against the backdrop of English moors no less wild and raw than the love they develop for one another. Brought together as children, Catherine and Heathcliff quickly become attached to each other. As they grow older, their companionship turns into obsession. Family, class, and fate work cruelly against them, as do their own jealous and volatile natures, and much of their lives is spent in revenge and frustration. Yet there is something magnificent about the depth and intensity of their love. Even as you condemn Catherine and Heathcliff for the pain they inflict upon themselves and others, it is hard not to listen in awe when Catherine cries out "I am Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind; not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being."
When I first read Wuthering Heights I couldn't stop reading it for a moment. As I was on my holidays I read it in about 12 hours straight. So when I went to bed, it was a very windy and rainy winter night and I started having terrible nightmares. Although it was supposed to scare me, I was very amused by it as I was still on the book mood I thought that that was Catherine and Heathcliff making me a visit. What an amazing story! It has been said that Charlotte destroyed a novel by Emily as she was dead and didn't actually authorized its publication. I truly believe it was a treasure.
