Amazon.com description: Product Description:
Los mejores libros jamás escritos. Una de las mayores historias de amor de la literatura y quizá la mejor representante del Romanticismo inglés. Cumbres borrascosas, la épica historia de Catherine y Heathcliff, situada en los sombrÃos y desolados páramos de Yorkshire, constituye una asombrosa visión metafÃsica del destin o, la obsesión, la pasión y la venganza. Con ella, Emily Brontë, que se vio obligada a ocultar su género publicando sus obras bajo seudónimo, rompió por completo con los cánones del decoro que la Inglaterra victoriana exigÃa en toda novela, tanto en el tema escogido como en la descripción de los personajes. La singularidad de su estructura narrativa y la fuerza de su lenguaje la convirtieron de inmediato en una de las obras más perdurables e influyentes de la historia de la literatura. Lucasta Miller, autora de The Brontë Myth (2001), analiza en el prefacio de la presente edición las diferentes interpretaciones que se han hecho de esta polémica obra. A su vez, la introducción de la profesora Pauline Nestor da cuenta de las influencias y los orÃgenes de Emily Brontë como escritora. Por último, esta edición incorpora la nota biográfica y el prefacio original, escrito por Charlotte, en el que revelaba su verdadera identidad, junto a un árbol genealógico de los protagonistas de la novela. «Pero mi amor por Heathcliff es como las rocas eternas que hay debajo, un manantial de escaso deleite para la vista, pero necesario.» ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Wuthering Heights is Emily Brontë's first and only published novel, written between October 1845 and June 1846, and published in 1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell; Brontë died the following year, aged 30. The decision to publish came after the success of her sister Charlotte's novel, Jane Eyre. After Emily's death, Charlotte edited the manuscript of Wuthering Heights, and arranged for the edited version to be published as a posthumous second edition in 1850. Wuthering Heights is the name of the farmhouse where the story unfolds. The book's core theme is the destructive effect of jealousy and vengefulness both on the jealous or vengeful individuals and on their communities.
