Description: One of English literature's classic masterpieces—a gripping novel of love, propriety, and tragedy. 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.

"10.10. I don't care what people say, I found this novel extremely boring, like really really really bad snorefest. It might just be the translation or cultural things, but I just didn't feel this one at all. Shit happens."

" My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees. My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath: a source of little visible delight, but necessary. Nelly,I AM Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being. So don't talk of our separation again: it is impracticable; -----------------------------------------------------------------"
