About this listen

The passionate and tragic story of Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff is one of the high points of nineteenth-century Romantic literature. In the relationship of Cathy and Heathcliff, and in the wild, bleak Yorkshire Moors of its setting, Wuthering Heights creates a world of its own, conceived with a disregard for convention and an instinct for poetry and the darkest depths of the human soul in torment.

Extraordinary reading of Emily Bronte’s masterpiece Wuthering Heights by Patricia Routledge. Her forceful characterisation and passion are undeniable and it was particularly striking to hear it delivered with accurate northern accents, as the novel should be. However I did find her characterisations of Linton and Heathcliff one dimensional and frankly unbelievable. Her Linton sounds like a simpleton which he was clearly not, being very well educated, and her reading of Heathcliff is in a constant heightened rage which I felt was a bit much. Overall though her dramatic skills are undeniable!

Haunting, many moments where I gasped, laughed and felt pure dread for the characters. So glad I finally listened to it. Certainly these are be characters that will leave a mark.

it's very hard to explain why you should read this book. it's so multi dimensional and complex, though I would say for everyone who appreciates gothic romance in s very classical way, please don't skip this book. storyline is beautiful and old fashioned, leave a lot to your imagination. it's a great ride

This amazing story written by a parson’s daughter is brought to life by the inimitable Patricia Routledge. She put her heart and soul into her performance and brought the atmospheric tale to life - I loved it. One I will listen to more than once.
Highly recommended if you love the Bronte books.
