内容简介《呼啸山庄》是英国杰出的浪漫主义女作家艾米莉·勃朗特唯一的一部长篇小说，被誉为“英国最佳十部小说”之一。 1847年该小说问世之初，并不被世人接受、理解，遭到普遍的冷淡和严厉的贬抑。小说中桀骜不训的人物性格，异乎寻常的炽热爱情，憎恨与复仇意识，完全有悖于“维多利亚”小说的正统观念。 但是20世纪以来，随着文学对人性话题的关注，人们逐渐意识到这部小说的艺术独创性，对它的社会和艺术成就的评价日趋提高。
艾米莉?勃朗特（EmilyBronte，1818－1848）与《简爱》（“JaneEyre”）的作者夏洛蒂?勃朗特（“CharlotteBronteD，1816—1855），和她们的小妹妹——《爱格尼斯?格雷》（“AgnesGrey”）的作者安?勃朗特（AnneBronteD，1820—1849）号称勃朗特三姊妹，她们在英国十九世纪文坛上焕发异彩。尽管艾米莉?勃朗特在世界上仅仅度过了三十年便默默无闻地离开了人间，但是她却给我们留下了珍贵的文学作品。
Book Description
This novel is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. Humiliated by Catherine's brother and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, Heathcliff seeks revenge.
From 500 Great Books by Women; review by Erica Bauermeister
Wuthering Heights is a classic tale of possessive and thwarted passion, one of the forerunners of today's soap operas and romance novels. The tempestuous and mythic story of Catherine Earnshaw, the precocious daughter of the house, and the ruggedly handsome, uncultured foundling her father brings home and names Heathcliff, is played out against the backdrop of English moors no less wild and raw than the love they develop for one another. Brought together as children, Catherine and Heathcliff quickly become attached to each other. As they grow older, their companionship turns into obsession. Family, class, and fate work cruelly against them, as do their own jealous and volatile natures, and much of their lives is spent in revenge and frustration. Yet there is something magnificent about the depth and intensity of their love. Even as you condemn Catherine and Heathcliff for the pain they inflict upon themselves and others, it is hard not to listen in awe when Catherine cries out "I am Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind; not as a pleasure, any more than I am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being."
FromSchool Library Journal
Grade 8 Up-British actor Martin Shaw reads this shortened version of the classic Emily Bronte novel. His easily-understood accent is appropriate and helps to set the mood. Shaw reads at a very steady pace, pausing effectively for emphasis or when his character might be thinking. Usually calm and gentle, his voice can resonate with anger or other emotion when necessary. There is some differentiation in pitch to emphasize male vs. female speech, but it is not exaggerated or overdone. The abridgement retains Bronte's words linking speech or narration sometimes from one page to another. It provides students with an easier way to become familiar with the story and get a feel for her style. Teachers could use this presentation to introduce the novel or to entice students to read it on their own.

FromAudioFile
This audiobook offers a good introduction to Bront''s romantic tale of the tormented relationship between Heathcliff and Cathy, two of the best known protagonists in nineteenth-century literature. Nadia May gives a spirited reading; she characterizes voices with enthusiasm but handles female voices more successfully than male ones. In all, May's overall tone is so strident that it becomes somewhat irritating. C.R.A.
