Great English Literature Classics Bundle, 5 in 1 Bundle: Wuthering Heights, Robinson Crusoe, Heart of Darkness, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and Much Ado About Nothing Here is your chance to listen to the best and most memorable classic English literature works and it's all at a special price. Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë tells the tale of the all-encompassing and passionate, yet thwarted, love between Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw, and how this unresolved passion eventually destroys them and many around them. Wuthering Heights is romantic, impassioned and wild, but it is also a dark journey in the human soul. Robinson Crusoe is said to be based on the real-life experiences of Scottish castaway Alexander Selkirk who lived on an island called Mas a Tierra for four years. Shipwrecked and castaway, Daniel DeFoe's hard-luck character is still the standard for "growing where you're planted." It has gone on to become one of the most widely published books in history, inspiring not only in literature but also in film, television, and radio. Heart of Darkness is a story within a story in which the character Charles Marlow relates his experience to fellow seafarers aboard a boat floating on the River Thames. It talks about the horrors of Western colonialism but what is really emphasized in this work is the idea that there is little difference between 'civilized people'' and 'savages.' Heart of Darkness is considered one of the best novels in the 20th century. The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde is about a London lawyer named Gabriel John Utterson who investigates strange occurrences between his old friend, Dr Henry Jekyll and the misanthropic Edward Hyde. Much Ado About Nothing is one of the best known works by William Shakespeare. The play is very popular and it continues to be one of Shakespeare's most performed plays to this date.

Wuthering Heights (Seasons Edition -- Winter)

"My love for Linton is like the foliage in the woods: time will change it, I'm well aware, as winter changes the trees. My love for Heathcliff resembles the eternal rocks beneath: a source of little visible delight, but necessary." - Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte In the classic Wuthering Heights Catherine is forced to choose between passionate, tortured gypsy Heathcliff and gentle, well-bred Edgar Linton. Catherine surrenders to the expectations of her class and sets off a domino effect with lasting consequences. As Heathcliff's bitterness and vengeance at his betrayal are visited upon the next generation, their innocent heirs must struggle to escape the legacy of the lovers tortured past.

Wuthering Heights

Although Wuthering Heights is now a classic of English literature, contemporaneous reviews were deeply polarised; it was controversial because of its unusually stark depiction of mental and physical cruelty, and it challenged Victorian ideas about religion, morality, class and woman's place in society. The English poet and painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti, although an admirer of the book, referred to it as 'A fiend of a book – an incredible monster The action is laid in hell, – only it seems places and people have English names there.' Wuthering Heights was influenced by Romanticism including the novels of Walter Scott, gothic fiction, and Byron, and the moorland setting is significant. The novel has inspired many adaptations, including film, radio and television dramatisations; a musical and even a ballet

Wuthering Heights - Emily Bronte

'My greatest thought in living is Heathcliff. If all else perished, and he remained, I should still continue to be... Nelly, I am Heathcliff! He's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure... but as my own being.' Wuthering Heights is the only novel of Emily Bronte, who died a year after its publication, at the age of thirty. A brooding Yorkshire tale of a love that is stronger than death, it is also a fierce vision of metaphysical passion, in which heaven and hell, nature and society, are powerfully juxtaposed. Unique, mystical, with a timeless appeal, it has become a classic of English literature.
