One wild, snowy night on the Yorkshire moors, a gentleman asks about Wuthering Heights, the remote farmhouse inhabited by his mysterious landlord. He is told about the tragic romance of the beautiful, headstrong Cathy and the orphan Heathcliff, who - although desperately in love with her - is rejected in favour of a rich suitor. But Cathy cannot forget him, and he develops a lust for revenge that will take over his life as he attempts to win her back, and to destroy everyone, and everything, he considers responsible for his loss.

Stormfulde højder er en vild, lidenskabelig fortælling om den intense, nærmest dæmoniske kærlighed mellem Catherine Earnshaw og hittebarnet Heathcliff, der bliver adopteret af Catherines far. Efter Mr Earnshaws død bliver Heathcliff tyranniseret og ydmyget af Catherines jaloux bror Hindley, som overtager gården, og da Catherine af materialistiske årsager gifter sig med en anden, beslutter Heathcliff sig for at forlade Wuthering Heights. Da han vender tilbage tre år senere, er han både rig og dannet og har planlagt en grusom hævn for sine tidligere lidelser. Han er ikke sen til at føre sine hævnplaner ud i livet, og hans handlinger får vidtrækkende konsekvenser for både ham selv og alle omkring ham. I dette litterære mesterværk er selvbedrag fatalt, hævnen bitter og kærligheden, der overskrider autoritet, konvention og død, destruktiv."Hvordan i alverden kunne en jomfru fjernt fra verdens vrimmel overhovedet konstruere en roman som stadigvæk holder som en af verdens bedste om følelsernes irrationelle musik, vanvid og inderlighed?" – Bo Tao Michaëlis, Politiken"Heathcliff og Cathy spøger stadig som et dekret i vores kærlighedshistorier, kulturens store og de helt personlige. Derfor er de et vigtigt studie for enhver kærlighedsforsker, professionel eller privat." – Lilian Munk Rösing, Information"Det er karsk og vild læsning, som gør let om hjertet." – Kathrine Lilleør, Berlingske

This Top Five Classics illustrated edition of Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights includes the complete, unabridged text; 12 starkly beautiful woodcut illustrations by renowned artist Clare Leighton (which were the inspiration for the sets of the classic 1939 Laurence Olivier-Merle Oberon film adaptation), as well as a helpful introduction, detailed author bio, and bibliography.Wuthering Heights was released in 1847 in the shadow of the instantly successful Jane Eyre, published two months earlier by her older sister Charlotte.

Though Emily would not live to see it, Wuthering Heights would become synonymous with passionate gothic romance and tragic love, establishing Heathcliff and Catherine as the most poignantly doomed couple in fiction since Romeo and Juliet, but with even darker consequences for everyone involved.
