Wutherin Heights

This book is set in the 17th Century.
In this book we meet three generations. Old Earnshaw lives in Wuthering Heights with his two children, Catherine and Hindley. One day, Old Earnshaw goes to Liverpool and finds a boy on the streets. He brings him home and calls his Heathcliff. Catherine and Heathcliff get on very well and grow very close. Hindley, on the other hand, hates Heathcliff, and thinks he is superior to Heathcliff. The housekeeper, Nelly Dean, acts as the Motherfigure to the children, as their actual mother died of fever.

In the valley below the Heights, live the Lintons. Catherine and Heathcliff meet the Lintons when they are attacked by dogs outside the Linton house. There are two children, around the saem age as Catherine and Heathcliff, Edgar and Isabella. Edgar falls in love with Catherine when she stays the night after being injured in the dog attack. Edgar askes Catherine to marry him and when she is telling Nelly Dean, Heathcliff overhears and disappears from the Heights for three years and Catherine marries Edgar.

When Heathcliff returns, he is different, a different man you could say. He moves into the Heights, as Old Earnshaw is dead. Hindley has become a drunken man who lives with his son Hareton. Catherine dies, giving birth to a baby girl, Cathy. Isabella elopes with Heathcliff, but when she discovers the true nature of him, she flees to London. While there, she gives birth to a baby boy, Young Linton.

Heathcliff gambles with Hindley and wins possession of the Heights. Later, Heathcliff beats up Hindley, very badly, and leter on, Hindley dies from his injuries. Heathcliff gains possesion of the Grange, where the Lintons live, by tricking young Cathy, Catherine's daughter, into marrying young Linton. Edgar dies of a broken heart and Heathcliff is haunted by the memory of Catherine and dies a broken man.

Lockwood, a young man from London, takes ownership of the Heights and Young Cathy marries Hareton at the end as Young Linton dies of fever.
