Set in the aptly named "Wuthering Heights" manor, this classic story tells of the unresolved love between one of literature's most complex figures, Heathcliff, and the free-spirited Catherine Earnshaw. This darkly dedicated re-telling of tormented romance and family feuds remains faithful to Emily Brontë's only - but none-the-less highly acclaimed - novel. Specially commissioned full-colour artwork brings excitement and atmosphere to this stirring tale. Speech bubbles work with the main text to emphasise and enhance the retelling. A running glossary at the foot of each page helps young readers with any challenging vocabulary without disrupting their reading experience. Endmatter provides information about the author, the historical background to the period in which the author lived and a timeline of world events that places the work in its historical context.
