Catherine the Ghost

By: Kathe Koja

Narrated by: Jennifer Pickens

From Bram Stoker Award-winning author Kathe Koja comes a fiercely poetic homage to Emily Brontë’s supernatural masterpiece Wuthering Heights, where love is relentless and the dead are never gone.

Cathy Earnshaw. Catherine Linton. Mother. Daughter. They never saw each other alive. In Catherine the Ghost these two young women confront loss, captivity, and the dark edge of eternity itself, to claim their full existence and share their power. With hauntings that escape the page and passion that bleeds them red, Koja crafts a tale that transcends the material plane as an eerie comfort that ghosts keep loving long past the grave.

This modern gothic punk remix of Emily Bronte’s classic Wuthering Heights is a ghost story told from the POV of Catherine Earnshaw’s restless spirit from beyond the grave. This short novel is sure to delight fans of ghost stories, feminist retellings of classics and the cult fan base of Kathe Koja, who has built a legacy with her intense speculative and horror fiction ever since her award-winning debut, The Cipher.

A unique homage to Wuthering Heights

I loved the deeply sad and emotional narration. The narrator was able to emote the longing, the loss and despair of Catherine. A love story between a ghost and her moody vexed Heathcliff.

Beautiful, haunting & longing

This is a beautifully written story of loss, sadness and longing, expertly narrated Jennifer Pickens.
