Biographical note

Emily Brontë was born in Yorkshire in 1818, and after the death of her mother three years later was brought up in the somewhat bleak parsonage of Haworth by their aunt, along with her sisters Charlotte and Anne, and brother Branwell. Immersed in reading and writing throughout her life, she joined her siblings in writing tales, fantasies, poems, journals, serial stories and a monthly magazine. Her poetry was included in the Brontë sisters's joint publication, Poems, which they released under their pseudonyms of Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell, but it is for her extraordinary only novel, Wuthering Heights, that Emily is best known. A passionate account of self-destructive love, it was published almost exactly a year before her death from tuberculosis at the age of thirty.

Wuthering Heights has achieved an almost mythical status as a love story, yet it is also a unique masterpiece of the imagination- an unsettling, transgressive novel about obsession, violence and death.
