Introduction, Wuthering Heights
Описание:
The haunting intensity of Catherine Earnshaw`s attachment to Heathcliff is the focus of a novel in which relations between men and women are described with an emotional and imaginative power unparalleled in English fiction. First published in 1847, `Wuthering Heights` is set on the bleak Yorkshire moors, where the drama of Catherine and Heathcliff, Heathcliff`s cruel revenge against Edgar and Isabella Linton, and the promise of redemption through the next generation is enacted. This edition usesthe authoritative Clarendon text, and in a new Introduction Patsy Stoneman considers the bewildering variety of critical interpretations to which the novel has been subject, as well as offering some provocative new insights for the modern reader.Похожие книги
