Wuthering Heights is the name of the farmhouse on the North York Moors
where the story unfolds. The book's core theme is the destructive
effect that jealousy and vengefulness have, both on the jealous or
vengeful individuals and on their communities.
Although Wuthering Heights is now widely regarded as a classic of English literature,
it received mixed reviews when first published, and was considered
controversial because its depiction of mental and physical cruelty was
unusually stark, and it challenged strict Victorian ideals of the day,
including religious hypocrisy, morality, social classes and gender
inequality.
