Features: World Classics of Juvenile Literature. Emily Bront? is widely recognized as a great genius in the history of English literature. Her novel Wuthering Heights possesses enduring artistic charm and is a remarkable, original, and visionary work, thus having been included in the world's literary classics. Wuthering Heights spans over thirty years, narrating the intricate and thrilling entanglement of emotions between two generations of the Earnshaw and Linton families. Emily broke tradition by pioneering the use of basic flashback, where the main part of the novel is told in reverse order, with only the first three chapters and the last four chapters presented in chronological order. Right from the beginning, readers are introduced to the basic framework of this storm of love and revenge, presenting the desolate and dilapidated environment of Wuthering Heights, as well as the cold and tense atmosphere among its inhabitants, which leaves readers, along with Mr. Lockwood, with a series of mysteries. Through Mr. Lockwood's experiences during his stay at the Heights and the horrifying nightmares he encounters, the mansion takes on a melancholic and mysterious hue, further heightening the suspense and compelling readers to seek the truth and uncover the full story.
