Sinossi
La brughiera selvaggia dello Yorkshire, scossa da tempeste violente e improvvise, fa da sfondo a una delle storie d'amore più tormentate di sempre. La natura, come stregata, riflette le emozioni contrastanti di personaggi memorabili, che con la loro forza viscerale rimangono vivi nel nostro immaginario. Quando Mr Earnshaw torna a casa portando con sé l'orfano Heathcliff, la vita di Catherine cambia per sempre: il nuovo amico è prima il compagno di un'infanzia e di un'adolescenza scapestrata, poi il polo di un amore devastante, ma anche il fuoco di rancori, gelosie, liti violente. C'è tutto lo spirito romantico del XIX secolo nell'unico, preziosissimo romanzo di Emily Bronté, un sentimento perfettamente rappresentato in questo volume dalle illustrazioni di Fritz Eichenberg, che con il suo tratto vigoroso, i volti drammatici e i paesaggi espressionistici, traduce in immagini l'atmosfera carica di tempesta e di contrasti che pervade il romanzo. Età di lettura: da 13 anni.

"Hello, everyone. Welcome to chaos." -Emily Brontë upon publishing this book, probably Inside me, there are two wolves. (I am saying there are two wolves in order to reference the meme, but what would be more accurate is to say that inside of me there are two boring and nonviolent creatures. Like a p Leggi tutto
Certain novels come to you with pre-packaged expectations. They just seem to be part of literature's collective unconscious, even if they are completely outside of your own cultural referents. I, for instance, who have no particular knowledge of--or great love for--romantic, Anglo-Gothic fiction, ca Leggi tutto
"all i care about in this goddamn life are me, my drums, and you"... if you don't know that quote, you're probably too young to be reading this and isn't it past your bedtime or shouldn't you be in school or something? but that quote, hyper-earnest cheese - that is romance. wuthering heights is someth Leggi tutto
Ah the classics. Everybody can read their own agenda in them. So, first a short plot guide for dinner conversations when one needs to fake acculturation, and then on to the critics’ view. A woman [1:] is in love with her non-blood brother [2:] but marries her neighbor [3:] whose sister [4:] marries Leggi tutto
I've tried it three times. I know people are obsessed with it. I hate everyone in the book - and I just can't care about a book where I actually hate the characters. And, sure, I get the interpretation that as terrible as Heathcliff and Cathy are, it's their love that redeems them, and isn't that rom Leggi tutto
