內容簡介
《咆哮山莊》是英國十九世紀女作家艾蜜莉.勃朗特(Emily Brontë)唯一一部問世的小說
但在世界文學上卻擁有不可動搖的地位。
然而,這本書首次出版時招致許多批評,認為這部小說的內容過於奇怪、粗野,甚至是嚇人的。
這是一部奇特的小說,令人欲罷不能。才華洋溢的艾蜜莉.勃朗特,用她特有的筆觸,創造出一個獨特的世界與視野。小說以一對青梅竹馬的愛情故事為主線,男主角希斯克里夫是一位被領養的吉普賽人,他和養父的親生女兒凱瑟琳從小就是一對兩小無猜。兩人長大後,凱瑟琳卻因為身分地位的問題,另嫁她人。
咆哮山莊,一個封閉的世界;人與人之間,破碎而尖銳的關係;男女主角,一段未了結的愛;一場不得不走向毀滅的宿命,一種不斷被分與合、情與恨反覆折磨的愛──英國現代小說家毛姆形容:「這部小說,極其邪惡,又極其美好;既醜陋,又唯美。」
《咆哮山莊》於1847年出版,隔年,艾蜜莉即以30歲的英年辭世,她不會看到這本書日後將如何影響世界文壇,甚至被讚譽為世界十大文學。
Wuthering Heights is a story about love and revenge. It follows the life of Heathcliff, a mysterious gypsy-like person, from his childhood to his death at the age of 38. It is set on the moors in West Yorkshire, an area Emily Brontë knew and loved. It is the only novel Brontë ever published.
The title of the book is the name of one of the two houses that feature in the book, and describes the house’s position on a windy (wuthering) hill (height). It tells the story of the unresolved love and passion between childhood friends, Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff and how it destroys both them and their families.
The book is told in a series of flashbacks by two narrators. The first, Mr Lockwood, rents Thrushcross Grange from Heathcliff and the second, Nelly Dean, is a servant who tells Lockwood about the events of the past. Both of the narrators take part in the action of the story and allow us to have a first-hand account of both the present and past.
The main theme in the story is love, and how love can damage people if it is not expressed well. Unresolved love can turn to hate and hate becomes revenge. Nature is another important part of the story and the conflict between nature and civilization is embodied in the relationship between Heathcliff and his rival, Edgar Linton.
Although Wuthering Heights is now considered to be a classic of English literature when it was first published critics found the book to be strange and shocking yet they all agreed that it was compulsive reading.
