Virtual Books 'n Bites : November Classics “Wuthering Heights” by Emily Brontë Virtual Books 'n Bites : November Classics “Wuthering Heights” by Emily Brontë
–
November 8, 2023“November Classics" continue as we turn our attention to Emily Brontë.
In November, our Books ‘n Bites title is the classic "Wuthering Heights"
Email Sandy at lbarnes@vail.gov to receive an invitation to the Zoom meeting.
Emily Brontë’s only novel endures as a work of tremendous and far-reaching influence. The Penguin Classics edition is the definitive version of the text, edited with an introduction by Pauline Nestor. Lockwood, the new tenant of Thrushcross Grange, situated 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. What unfolds is the tale of the intense love between the gypsy foundling Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw. Catherine, forced to choose between passionate, tortured Heathcliff and gentle, well-bred Edgar Linton, surrendered to the expectations of her class. As Heathcliff’s bitterness and vengeance at his betrayal is visited upon the next generation, their innocent heirs must struggle to escape the legacy of the past.
