About This Item
Cambridge: W. Heffer and Sons, 1937. Essentially an essay on the literary sources of Wuthering Heights, as well as a reflection on the Brontës's writing and its relationship with the landscape they grew up in. A special and scarce book of literary criticism and an affectionate reading of Emily Brontë's masterpiece. A near fine copy of an exceptionally appealing little book.
First edition. Hardback, 48 pp. Green cloth binding in near fine condition, apart from almost imperceptible bumping on corners. Pictorial dust jacket shows very light wear on the edges, as well as 2 mm chips on the bottom of the spine, but overall in very good condition.
