The dark, wild gypsy orphan Heathcliff loved only one person on earth, beautiful, willful Cathy Earnshaw. But Cathy's brother Hindley--the cruel, drunken master of Wuthering Heights--hated and abused the orphan; their rich neighbors at Thrushcross Grange, Edgar Linton and Isabella Linton, reviled the boy. They all conspired to force Heathcliff and Cathy apart, first as playmates, then as lovers, and at last to drive Heathcliff away. Years passed. Heathcliff returned a rich man--and found Cathy had married Edgar. Like a sullen demon, the gypsy vowed to ruin Wuthering Heights and the Grange, to plague his tormentors, to relentlessly hound and ruin the Earnshaws, the Lintons, even their children--until he won back the woman he loved.

评分尼采在悲剧的诞生一文里列举了两种艺术类型:日神式的和酒神式的。 日神额冠博带,面孔端庄,体相雍容,阿波罗的生活是标准的贵族生活,一种均衡的,不剧烈的,完满的生活。一种清醒,理智,有风骨的生活。日神式的艺术也是古典主义的标准艺术,一种宫殿气息的艺术...
评分伍尔夫在提到艾米莉·勃朗特的《呼啸山庄》时说,促使艾米莉·勃朗特创作的冲动不是她自身的痛苦和伤害,在读完《呼啸山庄》,我难于相信她这种说法。小说中那种痛彻心扉的激情,如果不是有过个人体验,凭一个人的想象力几乎是不可能达到的。 一位好心的绅士从街头引回一个...
