''You said I killed you - haunt me, then!''Wuthering Heights is one of the most famous love stories in the English language. It is also one of the most potent revenge narratives. The intense and unbreakable bond between the fiery Catherine Earnshaw and the foundling Heathcliff has startled and fascinated readers since its first publication in 1847. Of uncertain parentage and ethnicity, Heathcliff comes to Wuthering Heights as a child when Catherine''s father finds him wandering alone through the slave-trading port of Liverpool. After Mr Earnshaw''s death, Heathcliff and Catherine find refuge in each other when the household falls into the hands of Catherine''s dissolute older brother. Their bond deepens as they escape together from the violence and stern religion of their home to the Yorkshire moors.

“Though Earth and moon were gone,And suns and universes ceased to be, And Thou wert left alone,Every Existence would exist in Thee.”From the transcendent beauty of nature observed on the Yorkshire moors to fierce and forceful confrontations of mortality, Emily Brontë’s poems are powerful and passionate works that eloquently elaborate upon her sister Charlotte’s description of her as ""a solitude-loving raven, no gentle dove”.While only twenty-one of Emily Brontë’s poems were published in her lifetime, her poetic oeuvre is rich and varied, and not only includes visionary poems such as ‘No Coward Soul Is Mine’ and ‘Remembrance’, but also features the poems that describe the imagined realm of Gondal and its inhabitants, which she created with her sister Anne.

Na statek jménem Drozdov přijíždí z Londýna, aby tu užil klidného života v ústraní, pan Lockwood a záhy se seznamuje s obyvateli nedaleké usedlosti: ponurého, osamělého místa zvaného Větrná hůrka. Jeho majitel, temný a prchlivý Heatcliff, tu žije ve společnosti dvou mladých lidí Katky a Haretona. Z vyprávění své služebné Nelly se pan Lockwood postupně dozvídá o dramatické historii obyvatel Větrné hůrky a lásce mezi Katčinou matkou Kateřinou a Heatcliffem. Jejich příběh, odehrávající se v nehostinné krajině yorkshirských vřesovišť, není pouhým romantickým setkáním dvou milujících lidí, ale především vášnivým vztahem dvou nespoutaných, komplikovaných osobností, jejichž vztah poznamená nerovné postavení, ctižádost, ale i touha po pomstě. Tento román je jediným dílem spisovatelky Emily Brontëové, a když byl v roce 1847 pod pseudonymem Ellis Bell vydán, nevzbudil žádný mimořádný ohlas, snad kvůli své nezvyklé a složité kompozici nebo možná nejednoznačností povah jeho hlavních hrdinů. Postupně si k němu ale čtenáři našli cestu a stal se jedním z vrcholných děl anglické literatury.

The poems of Emily Jane Bronte are passionate and powerful works that convey the vitality of the human spirit and of the natural world. Only twenty-one of her poems were published during her lifetime - this volume contains those and all others attributed to her. Many poems describe the mythic country of Gondal and its citizens that she imagined with Anne, and remain the only surviving record of their joint creation. Other visionary works, including 'Remembrance' and 'No coward soul is mine', boldly confront mortality and anticipate life after death. And poems such as 'Redbreast early in the morning' and 'The blue bell is the sweetest flower' evoke the wild beauties of nature she observed on the Yorkshire moors, while also examining the state of her psyche.
