Book summary

In the north of England, Mr Earnshaw one day brings home a child found in the streets of Liverpool: Heathcliff. The boy grows up in the old farmhouse of Wuthering Heights with Catherine, the daughter of the house, who never leaves his side. But Catherine turns to Edgar Linton, the rich neighbour from the valley, and Heathcliff, wounded, does not forgive.

Emily Brontë wrote only this novel, and in it she tells one of the most famous loves in literature: a dark, violent love, stronger than reason.

Told mostly by the servant Nelly Dean, as if by the fireside, the story is a gripping read in the language you are learning.

The plot

人里離れた農家での一夜。ロックウッド氏は、イングランド北部の丘陵地帯に家を借りたばかり。家主のヒースクリフを訪ねると、彼は人里離れた古い農家に住んでいた。吹雪のため、ロックウッドはそこに泊まることになる。窓の下枠には、ある名前が一面に刻まれていた――キャサリン。

The world of the book
