"Se tutto il resto scomparisse e restasse solo lui, continuerei a esistere.""Un romanzo in cui domina la violenza sugli uomini, sugli animali, sulle cose, scandito da scatti di crudeltà sia fisica sia, soprattutto, morale. Un romanzo brutale e rozzo - sono gli aggettivi utilizzati dalla critica dell'epoca - che scuoteva gli animi per la sua potenza e la sua tetraggine e che narra il consumarsi di un'inesorabile (sino a un certo punto) vendetta portata avanti con fredda meticolosità dal disumano Heathcliff.

Issız bir fundalıkta, rüzgârın hiç dinmediği bir ev… Uğultulu Tepeler, aşkın en karanlık yüzünü anlatan sarsıcı bir klasik. Merkezinde Heathcliff ile Catherine Earnshaw’in birbirini hem var eden hem de yıkan bağı vardır: tutku, gurur ve sınıf farkı birleşir; sevgi zamanla öfkeye, öfke intikama dönüşür. Bu roman, romantik bir hikâye gibi başlayıp hızla bir hesaplaşmaya evrilir; acı yalnız iki kişi arasında kalmaz, nesiller boyu sürer. Gotik atmosferi, şiirsel dili ve unutulmaz karakterleriyle Uğultulu Tepeler, “bazı aşklar iyileştirmez—yarayı büyütür” cümlesini dinleyenin içine işler.

Written between October 1845 and June 1846, Wuthering Heights was published in 1847 under the pseudonym "Ellis Bell"; Bronte died the following year, aged 30.

Klasické dílo anglické literatury. Autorka mistrně vystihla nejtemnější zákoutí lidské duše, zlobu a záludnost. Jeden z nejtemnějších a nejsmutnějších příběhů světové literatury. Ponurost větrných vřesovišť jako by podněcovala pana Heathcliffa k splácení všech skutečných i domnělých křivd, jež se mu v životě přihodily. Pln nenávisti, smutku, lásky i bolesti, zlý i hluboce nešťastný myslí jen na jedno – na pomstu. Autorka sugestivně líčí prostředí, v němž vyrůstal, i příčiny, proč z vnímavého chlapce vyrostl uzavřený záludný člověk, který zasvětil život pomstě.

It only sold two volumes, but inspired much interest in the identities of the unknown poets. This is a recording of the more successful 1850 edition, which includes additional poems by Emily and Anne which Charlotte collected after their deaths. (Summary by Libby Gohn)

Poems by Currer, Ellis and Acton Bell was a volume of poetry published jointly by the three Bronte sisters, Charlotte, Emily and Anne in 1846, and their first work to ever go in print. To evade contemporary prejudice against female writers, the Bronte sisters adopted androgynous first names. Marked by profound sentiments, gravity and melodious harmony, the poems are strewn on the fields of soulful love, rueful reminiscence and the immortal yearnings of a Christian soul, and represent a fragrant assemblage of noetic flowers from the glebes of olden England. For those not familiar with the ...

Although Wuthering Heights is now a classic of English literature, contemporaneous reviews were deeply polarised; it was controversial because of its unusually stark depiction of mental and physical cruelty, and it challenged Victorian ideas about religion, morality, class, and woman's place in society.

At the heart of Dark Romanticism is its brooding, pessimistic tone, its emphasis on the supernatural and the sins of humanity, and its use of iconic symbols and horrifying imagery. The classic Dark Romantic authors (Edgar Allan Poe, Nathaniel Hawthorne and Herman Melville) are represented in the stories and poems in this volume, as well as some authors who are not commonly included in this genre.

"Les Hauts de Hurlevent," le seul roman d'Emily Brontë, est un chef-d'œuvre intemporel de la littérature anglaise. Publié pour la première fois en 1847 sous le pseudonyme d'Ellis Bell, ce roman gothique plonge les lecteurs dans l'atmosphère sombre et tumultueuse des landes du Yorkshire.
