註釋

Wuthering Heights is Emily Brontë's wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between the protagonists Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw The action of the story is chaotic and unremittingly ruthless, but the accomplished handling of a complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the beautiful but lonely moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature. Written between October 1845 and June 1846, Wuthering Heights was published in 1847. Although Wuthering Heights is now widely regarded as a classic of English literature, contemporary reviews for the novel were deeply polarised; it was considered controversial because its depiction of mental and physical cruelty was unusually stark, and it challenged strict Victorian ideals of the day regarding religious hypocrisy, morality, social classes and gender inequality.
