Classic Retellings - Wuthering Heights: A Retelling

About this curriculum

Carnegie Medal-winning author Tanya Landman reignites another beloved Victorian Brontë classic in a phenomenal retelling accessible to all readers. The night that Heathcliff, an unkempt orphan, arrives at the Heights, Cathy’s life will change for ever … but theirs will not be a happy love story. From a harsh childhood to a foolish marriage, a troubled path of pain and punishment lies ahead. Yet no matter how they suffer, they cannot stay apart – for whatever souls are made of, Cathy’s and Heathcliff’s are the same. After all these years, will Cathy’s ghost find the peace that life denied her? Particularly suitable for readers aged 11+ with a reading age of 9.
