Wuthering Heights
Emily Brontë · 1847
Emily Bronte's only novel, published in 1847 and unlike anything before or since. A love story that doubles as a ghost story, a class drama, and a portrait of obsession so intense it warps the narrative itself. Heathcliff is English literature's most violently compelling anti-hero. It burns.
