Wuthering Heights

De: Emily Brontë

Narrado por: Juliet Stevenson

The wild and passionate tale of Cathy and Heathcliff's impossible love for each other and its phenomenal setting on the blasted Yorkshire moors has to be one of the best-known love affairs in literature.

When it was first published in 1847, Wuthering Heights was greeted with a fair degree of outrage, not only for the open description of desire and disaster but for the almost unheard of method of telling the story using unreliable witnesses whose tales and points of view open out from each other, leaving the audience to piece together the truth of the story.

Only such novels as Mary Shelley's Frankenstein had previously attempted to challenge the reader in this way, and it is only in the last century that the true genius of Emily Brontë's work has begun to be appreciated.

Prepare to be as swept up and buffeted by the extraordinary power of Brontë's storytelling as Cathy and Heathcliff are by the winds of Wuthering Heights.

Narration brings story alive

Thank you, Juliet, for giving us this timeless tale with your beautiful voice striking all the right notes to capture our hearts with this seamless reading. I loved every minute-

Juliet Stevenson is Amazing!

Once again, Juliet brings to life another Bronte classic brilliantly.
This novel should only be read UNABRIDGED to fully appreciate the complexity of the story. The novel has so many characters that struggle with adversity, obsession, and forgiveness. I had always thought of Wuthering Heights mainly as a romance between Catherine and Heathcliff? Think again!

On old favorite

Juliet Stevenson perfectly sums up my feelings about Wuthering Heights at the end of her narration. I loved and romanticized the book as a young girl, but as an adult I see the tragic selfishness of the couple that leads to so much misery. Stevenson does s beautiful job as narrator.

Juliet Stevenson Is THE Narrator!

This narration of Wuthering Heights makes the novel. When I first read Wuthering Heights years ago, I was underwhelmed with all the melodrama and unlikable characters. Years later, I thought I would give it another try, mainly because I love Juliet Stevenson as a narrator. As usual, she does not disappoint. Her voices and acting out the characters really make this novel come to life. Great performance!

Beautifully horrible!

Wow! Withering Heights is fantastically written. The story is sad, cold, and real. Juliet Stevenson is a fantastic narrator. She captures each character. I loved this book!
