Hareton Earnshaw, the natural inheritor to Wuthering Heights, is a solitary, rough young man, widely regarded as having been cheated of his birthright by his guardian, Heathcliff. The eighteen year old has no illusions about his uncle’s harsh nature, but he is not able to hate where he has been loved. When Hareton meets thirteen-year-old Catherine Linton of Thrushcross Grange, new emotion stirs in his secret heart and he begins to long for a life withheld from him, bringing him into conflict with Heathcliff’s agenda.
Meanwhile, Emily Brontë’s joy that Wuthering Heights has found a publisher is short-lived when she divines that her work will be overshadowed by her older sister’s Jane Eyre. Even so, she must lay the ghosts of Cathy and Heathcliff to rest, even as her own life is coming to an end.

Weaving fact and fiction, Wuthering Heights Variations offers a fresh interpretation of the famous Cathy and Heathcliff romance and attempts to solve an enduring literary mystery.
Emily Brontë was twenty-seven-years-old when she began writing Wuthering Heights in 1845. What had inspired the story, no one could say, least of all Emily. The author was an enigma. If her diaries had survived, what would they have revealed about the author and the story behind the story? How did an unworldly curate’s daughter dream up such a creature as Heathcliff and more significantly—why? The series attempts to answer to these questions while honouring Emily Brontë’s original work.
