Wuthering Heights

Novel (1847) by Emily Brontë. The orphan Heathcliff is loved by Catherine, the daughter of his adopted father, Mr Earnshaw of Wuthering Heights. Ill-treated after Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff's extremes of love and hate are played out in the relationship between himself, the Earnshaws, and the Lintons of Thrushcross Grange and their stories. There is an ultimate reconciliation of conflicts when the daughter of the dead Catherine marries the son of Heathcliff and Isabella Linton. The novel's high reputation is based on its outstanding originality and power. It was Emily Brontë's only novel.

It includes kitchen and parlour, generally; but I believe at Wuthering Heights the kitchen is forced to retreat altogether into another quarter: at least I distinguished a chatter of tongues, and a clatter of culinary utensils, deep within; and I observed no signs of roasting, boiling, or baking, about the huge fireplace; nor any glitter of copper saucepans and tin cullenders on the walls.
