Hate is unjust. Love is even more so. The author died shortly after the publication of her only novel, which she signed with a male pseudonym in 1847.

She created one of the most important works of English literature, but she did not live to see recognition. The characters in the moving story are connected not only by blood, but also by a place where nature speaks as powerfully as the spirits of ancient sins. The stormy elements also toss the unique concept of good and evil, with which Emily Brontë so irritated contemporary society. The ballad-like horror work Wuthering Heights does not psychologically compete with the greatness of ancient dramas. It tells the story of people who dedicate their lives to destructive desire. The only woman who can stop the dark hero on his path of revenge marries his rival. The obsession that exceeds the temporary boundaries of human existence and the birth of evil are the driving dramatic force of the characters. Their story has rightfully inspired both filmmakers and world theater stages.
