"If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be...I am Heathcliff...." Catherine Earnshaw's passionate statement reveals the core of Emily Bronte's tempestuous literary masterpiece. Meeting as children, Catherine and Heathcliff begin a relationship that grows into obsession as family, class, and fate work against them as much as their own jealous natures.

I've loved this book for so long that when I became a teacher I made it part of our curriculum just so I could enjoy it again.

What nasty people. But such manners. Well written! Kept me interested. Worth a read/listen.

Like the previous reviewer, I was a little taken aback by the crackly voiced, "old lady-sounding" narrator at first. However, as the book proceded, I decided that I actually liked this narrator. Her voice works b/c much of the narration is told by the housekeeper, Nellie. Moreover, she does a fine job with the voices of the younger women and the accents of the locals, both male and female.

It had been years since I'd picked up Wuthering Heights, and this audio book was a pleasure. The cast of tortured characters and senseless and unjust wrongs propels one to continue even while questioning why such people should matter. They simply do. It is a disturbing, haunting story, with--at long last--a happy ending of sorts.

compelling and intense; the narrator grew on me

Wuthering Heights is a dear friend I always look forward to visiting. I enjoy this book more every time I listen or read it. It is a beautiful story that is wonderfully told. There are so many things that are enduring about this work one of which is life nor love is perfect but here is a portrait of how love and life intertwine can always be found in Wuthering Heights.

A friend I look forward to revisiting

I read this a few years ago, but since I've only read a million other books since then, I hardly recalled much of the story, so I decided to go back and listen to it this time. It's nothing like any book I've ever read before and I can't believe I'd forget any of it again now that I've read it twice. The narrator is excellent! I'd love to hear her read many other books!

Always a classic!
