Wuthering Heights

Penguin Classics presents Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights, adapted for audio and available as a digital download as part of the Penguin English Library series. Read by the actress Juliet Stevenson.

"May you not rest, as long as I am living. You said I killed you - haunt me, then"

Lockwood, the new tenant of Thrushcross Grange on the bleak Yorkshire moors, is forced to seek shelter one night at Wuthering Heights, the home of his landlord. There he discovers the history of the tempestuous events that took place years before: of the intense passion between the foundling Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, and her betrayal of him. As Heathcliff's bitterness and vengeance is visited upon the next generation, their innocent heirs must struggle to escape the legacy of the past.

Part of a series of vintage recordings taken from the Penguin Archives. Affordable, collectable, quality productions - perfect for on-the-go listening.

doesn't follow original work, leaves out sentences

this does not follow the book, it can leave out whole sentences or parts of them. I love her voice though.

An excellent performance!

I was not familiar with the story and looking for a good version. Juliet Stevenson sets a high bar for my future listening!

Shorter version!

This is the shorten version but it did not say so in the description. So not waist your money if you want the unabridged version.
