Emily Brontë Book order (chronological)

'Be with me always - take any form - drive me mad! only do not leave me in this abyss, where I cannot find you! Oh, God! it is unutterable! I cannot live without my life! I cannot live without my soul!' Emily Bronte's novel of impossible desires, violence and transgression is a masterpiece of intense, unsettling power. It begins in a snowstorm, when Lockwood, the new tenant of Thrushcross Grange on the bleak Yorkshire moors, is forced to seek shelter at Wuthering Heights. There he discovers the history of the tempestuous events that took place years before- the intense passion between the foundling Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, her betrayal of him and the bitter vengeance he now wreaks on the innocent heirs of the past.

Set against the haunting backdrop of the Yorkshire moors, the story unfolds through Mr. Lockwood and Nelly Dean, revealing the intense and tumultuous relationship between Heathcliff and Catherine. Their love, challenged by class differences and societal expectations, leads to heartbreak and vengeance, particularly after Catherine marries Edgar Linton. Heathcliff's quest for revenge has devastating effects on future generations, exploring themes of love, obsession, and cruelty. The morally complex characters and atmospheric setting enhance its status as a literary classic.

The literary masterpieces of the three Brontë sisters in one volume: Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. This handsome leather-bound edition includes the most acclaimed novels of each of the Brontë sisters: Charlotte’s Jane Eyre, Emily’s Wuthering Heights, and Anne’s The Tenant of Wildfell Hall. Originally published under male pseudonyms in the 1840s, these three novels later helped give rise to the feminist literary movement of the late nineteenth century, in which women’s perspectives became more accepted by the mainstream reading public. A scholarly introduction provides an overview of the sisters’ childhood in northern England, their literary influences, and their enduring legacy.

Meet the women who wrote. They wrote against all odds. Some wrote defiantly; some wrote desperately. Some wrote while trapped within the confines of status and wealth. Some wrote hand-to-mouth in abject poverty. Some wrote trapped in a room of their father’s house, and some went in search of a room of their own. They had lovers and families. They were sometimes lonely. Many wrote anonymously or under a pseudonym for a world not yet ready for their genius and talent. We know many of their names—Austen and Alcott, Brontë and Browning, Wheatley and Woolf—though some may be less familiar. They are here, waiting to introduce themselves. They marched through the world one by one or in small sisterhoods, speaking to each other and to us over distances of place and time. Pushing back against the boundaries meant to keep us in our place, they carved enough space for themselves to write. They made space for us to follow. Here they are gathered together, an army of women who wrote and an arsenal of words to inspire us. They walk with us as we forge our own paths forward. These women wrote to change the world.

Sette magnifiche signore, sette romanzi al femminile che tracciano oltre un secolo di storia della letteratura inglese. Si inizia con le vicende della famiglia Bennet e delle loro cinque figlie, raccontate da Jane Austen in un'analisi ironica e intelligente della borghesia inglese. Si prosegue con il celebre Frankenstein di Mary Shelley, un'eccellente prova di narrativa gotica in cui il “mostro” incarna le nostre paure più profonde. I capolavori delle sorelle Brontë - Charlotte, Emily e Anne - con Jane Eyre, Cime tempestose e Agnes Grey, esplorano le dinamiche della rigida classe nobiliare vittoriana e le storie di eroi ed eroine in cerca dell'amore. Mary Anne Evans, nota come George Eliot, si ribella al romanticismo con Il velo dissolto, un breve romanzo che illumina le parti più oscure e irrazionali dell'esperienza umana. Infine, Virginia Woolf, con Gita al faro, rappresenta un esempio di letteratura del XX secolo, dove le grandi passioni cedono il passo all'intimismo e al flusso di coscienza. Queste opere offrono uno sguardo profondo e variegato sulla condizione femminile e le sfide esistenziali nel corso della storia.

'Grozovoi pereval' or 'Wuthering Heights' is a wild and passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine and Heathcliff.

Cathy and Heathcliff, childhood friends, are cruelly separated by class, fate and the actions of others. But uniting them is something even stronger: an all-consuming passion that sweeps away everything that comes between them. Even death.

"... Эдвард все еще сомневался. Но следовало позволять ему оставаться со мной в эту ночь. Но ведь он был так мне нужен. - Дай-ка мне книжку, - попросила я, показывая на книгу за его спиной. Эдвард недоуменно нахмурился, но подал..."

Cims borrascosos, una de les grans novel·les del segle XIX anglès, narra la història d'amor tèrbola i apassionada entre Heathcliff i Catherine. Amargat i pertorbat per un passat que no és capaç d'oblidar, Heathcliff malviu per la seva set de venjança i provoca la infelicitat de tots els que l'envolten. L'obra presenta, en un ambient misteriós i tràgic, l'esclat d'una passió violenta, però buida de sensualitat. El clima de puritanisme i la ingenuïtat en la visió d'alguns personatges fan encara més remarcable la intel·ligent concepció de la narració, efectiva i potent, que ha fet que sigui considerada una de les millors novel·les de tots els temps.

Includes the novels Jane Eyre, Villette, Wuthering Heights, Agnes Grey, and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall.

In time for the 200th anniversary of her birth, a Penguin Hardcover Classics edition of the book many believe to be Charlotte Brontë's crowning achievement With neither friends nor family, Lucy Snowe sets sail from England to find employment in a girls' boarding school in the small town of Villette.

Un tema ricorrente delle poesie, e certamente centrale nell'intero ciclo, è la libertà: intesa soprattutto come liberazione. [...] Emily voleva essere liberata dalla persona propria; dalla persona tangibile, esigibile, sociale. [...] Voleva esistere in qualcos'altro, in altra forma, altrove. Voleva fare di sé un puro ascolto delle voci della natura, puro sguardo e pura visione. Fare tutt'uno con la sua fantasia. La carne che la stringeva come una prigione era quella che la separava dalle presenze spettrali che abitano la notte, il sogno, le grotte. Essere la stessa cosa del suo sogno, e non sognare.

Emily Bronté's only novel is set firmly in the high moors above Haworth where she watched 'the moths fluttering among the heath and harebells, listened to the soft wind breathing through the grass, and wondered how anyone could imagine unquiet slumbers for the sleepers in that quiet earth'. Wuthering Heights is a powerful, sombre and imaginative masterpiece—perhaps the masterpiece of all the Bronté canon. Its theme of doomed passion between Cathy Earnshaw and the foundling Heathcliff reflects its author's own bleak upbringing as clearly as its setting evokes the dark and ominous beauty of the moorland country where she lived out the years of her short life. As a novel of the darkest human passions, of love and sexual obsession, of despair and destruction, its power is matched rarely and then only by the finest of English prose and poetry. This edition contains a selection of Emily Bronté's poems. Introduction by Elizabeth Jennings. Notes by Phyllis Bentley. --back cover

"Wuthering Heights", Emily Bronte's only novel, is one of the pinnacles of 19th-century English literature. It's the story of Heathcliff, an orphan who falls in love with a girl above his class, loses her, and devotes the rest of his life to wreaking revenge on her family.

There are few more convincing, less sentimental accounts of passionate love than the story of the tormented Heathcliff, who falls wildly in love with Catherine Earnshaw, the daughter of his benefactor, and of the violence and misery that result from their thwarted longing for each other. Revised reissue.

The classic story, set in Yorkshire, England, of the love between Catherine and Heathcliff and of his revenge after her brother treats him in a degrading manner.
