About this listen

The passionate and tragic story of Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff is one of the high points of 19th-century Romantic literature. In the relationship of Cathy and Heathcliff, and in the wild, bleak Yorkshire Moors of its setting, Wuthering Heights creates a world of its own, conceived with a disregard for convention and an instinct for poetry and the darkest depths of the human soul in torment.

Would you consider the audio edition of Wuthering Heights to be better than the print version?

Wuthering Heights is admittedly my favourite book and so my review is bound to be biased. However the fantastic narration by Patricia Routledge brings the characters, the scenery, the raw emotions startlingly to life and so every single passion of the suffering characters becomes your passion, or more accurately your anguish. I have read the print version a good few times and yet discovered new and more poignant aspects that I had missed, or not given my attention to, in reading alone. Hats off to the narrator for a faultless and quite brilliant delivery of this fantastic work of creation that brings you to the Moors and places you in every scene.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Wuthering Heights?

The tenant's account of the night he spent at the heights on his first visit there.

Have you listened to any of Patricia Routledge’s other performances? How does this one compare?

I have not yet.listened to others but will be doing so soon.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Ah, this can only be the ending.

Any additional comments?

Only that I can and will listen to this again and again and, yes, again.

Patricia Routledge's interpretation of this classic novel is a delight. She brings a balance between clear narrative and the accents of the Yorkshire characters. Her story telling held me all through the many hours of listening as I gardened or went about household chores

Patricia Rougtledge brought the while thing to life especially the Yorkshire accent!
The story is so full of jealousy, and hate, but also beauty and love. The old language is something to behold and is beautiful in its own right.

A grueling story, but loved it all!

Gripping, all the way through. It is hard to imagine it was written by someone so young and with relatively little experience in life as to write something as deep, intelligent and as moving as this.

I recommend it to anybody who would like to loose themselves completely for a day or two or as long as it takes to finish the book.

I don’t think I shall ever tire of reading this book, or listening to it, over and over again.

Probably the best book I have ever read
