The enigma that a young woman from such a closed and protected environ-ment as a Yorkshire parsonage could write the wildly romantic， complex， andunconventional Wuthering Heights has long fascinated readers.Largely self-educated， Emily Bront6 spent most of her short life at the familyhome in Haworth， England. Her solitary instincts are well known， and everybiographers task has been complicated by her refusal to reveal anything ofherself during her lifetime.In this fascinating biography， Robert Barnard examines Emily Bront6sinsulated childhood， the lyrical poems of her twenues that prefigure the rawintensity of Wuthering Heights， and the sources and inspiration for WutheringHeights itself. The author draws not only on Bront6s own writing， but also onthe words of her friends and family to present a full picture of her life andcharacter. Also crucial to this story are recent discoveries concerningBront6s studies of the classics， glimpses of her in her brothers recentlypublished juvenilia， and her little-known writing during her year of study inBrussels.Illustrated with manuscripts drawn from The British Librarys vast collection，as well as photographs， contemporary pictures， and letters from many othersources， this book provides a highly read-able account of the elusive Emily Bront6
