GetAbstract AG, 2023

Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights features one of the most contentious literary figures of all time. Her character Heathcliff is a man whom it seems love and hate drive in equal parts. Shunned and despised as a foundling child, the adult Heathcliff returns to his childhood home to wreak havoc on all those who harmed him – and to win back the love of his life. Brontë’s contemporaries took offense at her main character’s merciless, cold-blooded crusade and the depiction of human nature as violent and depraved. This meant that Brontë never lived to see the success of her work – the novel only entered the ranks of the best in literature decades after Brontë’s death. Wuthering Heights remained Brontë’s only novel, but its popularity has continued unabated, inspiring numerous film versions and providing material for two international pop music hits.
