  Step into the windswept Yorkshire moors in Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights — a story of passion, vengeance, and haunting devotion that defies time itself. 
  When the brooding orphan Heathcliff is taken in by the Earnshaw family, his deep, fierce love for Catherine Earnshaw becomes both his salvation and his ruin. Torn apart by pride and circumstance, their bond transforms into an obsession that spans generations, binding the fates of all who live at Wuthering Heights and Thrushcross Grange. 
  Through the eyes of the outsider Mr. Lockwood and the housekeeper Nelly Dean, Brontë unravels a gothic masterpiece where love becomes indistinguishable from torment, and memory itself refuses to rest. 
   Darkly poetic and emotionally raw, Wuthering Heights remains one of the most powerful explorations of human desire and self-destruction ever written — a tale where the moors echo with the ghosts of hearts that could never let go.

  Published in 1847, Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë, concerns two families of the landed gentry living on the West Yorkshire moors, the Earnshaws and the Lintons, and their turbulent relationships with the Earnshaws' foster son, Heathcliff. Whilst it is now widely considered to be one of the greatest novels ever written in English, contemporaneous reviews were polarised. It was controversial for its depictions of mental and physical cruelty, including domestic abuse, and for its challenges to Victorian morality and religious and societal values.  
  Narrated by Michael Ward.

  Thrown in prison for a crime he has not committed, Edmond Dantes is confined to the grim fortress of If. There he learns of a great hoard of treasure hidden on the Isle of Monte Cristo and he becomes determined not only to escape, but also to unearth the treasure and use it to plot the destruction of the three men responsible for his incarceration. Dumas' epic tale of suffering and retribution, inspired by a real-life case of wrongful imprisonment, was a huge popular success when it was first serialized in the 1840s.
  VOLUME 5: Three days after the scene we have just described, namely towards five o'clock in the afternoon of the day fixed for the signature of the contract between Mademoiselle Eugénie Danglars and Andrea Cavalcanti, whom the banker persisted in calling prince, a fresh breeze was stirring the leaves in the little garden in front of the Count of Monte Cristo's house.
