1939 film "Wuthering Heights" to be screened Friday, March 6, 2015
Screening tie-in with new book by novelist Caryl Phillips, who will visit the Writers Institute on March 10

The screening is in association with the upcoming appearance of award-winning fiction writer Caryl Phillips, who reimagines elements of WUTHERING HEIGHTS in his new novel, The Lost Child (2015). Phillips will appear at the Writers Institute on Tuesday, March 10 to read from and discuss his new novel.
