Summary

Emily Bronte: Hurricane Heights

A first-rate "sweetheart" and an unquestionable classic - this is the generally accepted perception of the readership and critics of Hurricane Heights, the famous novel by Emily Brontë from 1847, which, with its special, precisely specific quality, and "specific weight", and popularity, significantly surpasses the average literary production of its era.

Hurricane heights are a relatively early outgrowth of Victorian literature and a relatively late reflection of the so-called of the Gothic tradition, so the environment is also somewhat "darker", but nevertheless, an almost supernatural glow of love shines from it, which, despite everything, even death, lives forever.
This book, it seems, will live forever, mostly because of the intense and hitherto unconceived emotional drama that Emily Brontë described unusually powerfully and convincingly. It is interesting that a novel with such a "hurricane" dramatic charge and complex psychological characterization of the characters - first of all, the demonic nature of the main character Heathcliff, who expresses an unprecedented force of anger, rage and desolation - was written by a girl of less than thirty summers, who will end her short life just after the completion of her only work. new editions, adaptations, reinterpretations or quotations on film, comics, music, literature... - let's recall Bunuel's treatment in the film Abyss of Passion from 1954, or Kate Bush's loud musical "reading" in the hit song Wuthering Heights from 1978, while younger readers rediscover her through the hyper-popular series Twilight by Stephenie Meyer.

Undead The charm of Orkanskih visov is also joyfully enhanced by the colorful shop with a new translation by Neda Paravić and woodcut illustrations by Clara Leighton.
