Considered lurid and shocking by mid-19th-century standards, Wuthering Heights was initially thought to be such a publishing risk that its author, Emily Bronte, was asked to pay some of the publication costs. A somber tale of consuming passions and vengeance played out against the lonely moors of northern England, the book proved to be one of the most enduring classics of English literature. The turbulent and tempestuous love story of Cathy and Heathcliff spans two generations -- from the time Heathcliff, a strange, course young boy, is brought to live on the Earnshaw''s windswept estate, through Cathy''s marriage to Edgar Linton and Heathcliff''s plans for revenge, to Cathy''s death years later and the eventual union of the surviving Earnshaw and Linton heirs. A masterpiece of imaginative fiction, Wuthering Heightsremains as poignant and compelling today as it was when first published in 1847.

Vikram Seth's novel is, at its core, a love story: the tale of Lata's - and her mothers - attempts to find a suitable boy for Lata, through love or through exacting maternal appraisal.
