The gothic romance “Wuthering Heights,” Emily Brontë's only novel published in 1847, is having a renaissance due to Emerald Fennell’s new film adaptation starring Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie. Book sales have skyrocketed and the themes of class, racism and sexuality are being dissected across book clubs and group chats. Here & Now associate producer Kalyani Saxena moderates a conversation with Brontë biographer Deborah Lutz and WBUR film critic Sean Burns exploring the many interpretations the novel has inspired over the century. We’ll show photos and film clips to trace its evolution on screen.
Copies of Lutz’s biography, “This Dark Night: Emily Brontë, A Life” will be available to purchase from our bookstore partner Lovestruck Books & Cafe and Lutz will sign following the conversation.
