Produktbeschreibung
Wuthering Heights is Emily Brontë's only novel. Written between October 1845 and June 1846, Wuthering Heights was published in 1847 under the pseudonym "Ellis Bell"; Brontë died the following year, aged 30. Wuthering Heights and Anne Brontë's Agnes Grey were accepted by publisher Thomas Newby before the success of their sister Charlotte's novel, Jane Eyre. After Emily's death, Charlotte edited the manuscript of Wuthering Heights, and arranged for the edited version to be published as a posthumous second edition in 1850. Although Wuthering Heights is now widely regarded as a classic of English literature, contemporary reviews for the novel were deeply polarised; it was considered controversial because its depiction of mental and physical cruelty was unusually stark, and it challenged strict Victorian ideals of the day regarding religious hypocrisy, morality, social classes and gender inequality.

Autorenporträt
Emily Brontë was born in 1818 and grew up in a small mill town on the edge of the Yorkshire moors. After the death of their mother in 1821, Emily and her siblings were raised by their father, a country parson, and their maternal aunt. They were classically educated and enjoyed creating intricate fantasy worlds and writing poems and stories about them throughout their childhood. Her sisters Anne and Charlotte Brontë also grew up to be accomplished authors. Emily is also known for her brilliant poetry, and her only novel was Wuthering Heights, first published under the pseudonym Ellis Bell in 1847. She died the following year of tuberculosis, not knowing her work was destined to become one of the most popular and highly respected novels of all time.
