Classics & Cake - 'Wuthering Heights' by Emily Bronte

Wuthering Heights - Destructive Passion Dr Diana Hallam examines the destructive passion between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff that lies at the core of 'Wuthering Heights'. Bronte's brooding Gothic novel weaves themes of love and obsession, jealousy and revenge, social class conflicts, and the supernatural, set against the evocative backdrop of the wild and rugged Yorkshire moors.
