Following Jane from her childhood as an orphan in Northern England through her experience as a governess at Thornfield Hall, Charlotte Brontë's Gothic classic is an early exploration of women's independence in the mid-19th century and the pervasive societal challenges women had to endure.

Story
Austen wrote, 'I am going to take a heroine whom no-one but myself will much like' and thus introduces the handsome, clever, rich - and flawed, Emma Woodhouse. Emma is perfectly content with her life and sees no need for either love or marriage; nothing however delights her more than matchmaking her fellow residents of Highbury. But when she ignores the warnings of her good friend Mr. Knightley and attempts to arrange a suitable match for her protegee Harriet Smith, her carefully laid plans soon unravel and have consequences that she never expected.

From the chilling opening confrontation with an escaped convict to the grand but eerily disheveled estate of bitter old Miss Havisham, all is not what it seems in Dickens’ dark tale of false illusions and thwarted desire.

Story
"Call me Ishmael." Thus starts the greatest American novel. Melville said himself that he wanted to write "a mighty book about a mighty theme" and so he did. It is a story of one man's obsessive revenge-journey against the white whale, Moby-Dick, who injured him in an earlier meeting. Woven into the story of the last journey of The Pequod is a mesh of philosophy, rumination, religion, history, and a mass of information about whaling through the ages.

Story
The Mill on the Floss is one of the great works of English literature. It is perhaps the most autobiographical of all Eliot's novels. The relationship between its heroine, Maggie Tulliver, and her brother, Tom, closely resembles that of George Eliot and her own brother, Isaac. The subject of sibling affection was clearly a deeply poignant one for George Eliot - she also wrote a series of beautiful and evocative sonnets entitled 'Brother and Sister'.

Publisher's summary
The passionate and tragic story of Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff is one of the high points of 19th-century Romantic literature. In the relationship of Cathy and Heathcliff, and in the wild, bleak Yorkshire Moors of its setting, Wuthering Heights creates a world of its own, conceived with a disregard for convention and an instinct for poetry and the darkest depths of the human soul in torment.

Adam Bede (1859), George Eliot's first full-length novel, marked the emergence of an artist to rank with Scott and Dickens. Set in the English Midlands of farmers and village craftsmen at the turn of the 18th century, the book relates a story of seduction issuing in "the inward suffering which is the worst form of Nemesis". But it is also a rich and pioneering record - drawing on intimate knowledge and affectionate memory - of a rural world that we have lost.

Story
Immediately following the success of Little Women, Louisa May Alcott sat down to write An-Old Fashioned Girl, expanding on the subject of rich versus poor that she explored in her first novel. It’s a story of a country mouse and a city mouse: 14-year-old Polly Milton travels to Boston for a stay with her friend Fanny Shaw. The wealthy Shaws’ way of life is foreign to Polly who tries to adapt but is quickly labeled “old-fashioned”. Fanny and her friends dress and behave as their elders do, flirting with boys and gossiping.

Story
A masterful blend of Gothic drama and romance, Wilkie Collins' mystery novel is an exploration of illegitimacy and inheritance. Set in Cornwall, the plot foreshadows The Woman in White with its themes of doubtful identity and deception and involves a broad array of characters. The "secret" of the book's title is the true parentage of the book's heroine, Rosamond Treverton, which has been written down and kept in an unused room at Porthgenna Tower. This is where, 20 years later, much of the novel's action is set.

In this Audible Exclusive performance by Matt Lucas of Great Expectations, Charles Dickens demonstrates that conscience, loyalty and empathy are virtues far more valuable than intellect, wealth and social standing. First published in Dickens’ own periodical, All the Year Round, the novel was divided into nine monthly instalments, from December 1860 to August 1861. Unsurprisingly, it was an instant success and managed to sell over 100,000 copies per week. Though written at a challenging time in Dickens’ life, when the impending breakdown of his marriage loomed over him, Great Expectations proves to be one of his most optimistic, comical and romantic novels.

Patricia Routledge Does Wuthering Heights Justice!
What does Patricia Routledge bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
No-one absolutely no-one does character voices like Patricia Routledge, her vocal range is like no other i have listened to. She brings the story to life, her voice is so animated and dramatic....she does not read....she performs. If you have hated every attempt hollywood has made to reproduce this great classic on the big screen.....Patricia Routledge's performance is as good as it gets.

I own several versions of this story, but Mrs. Routledge’s is the best! I feel like I heard parts for the first time. I worried I would hear Hyacinth Bucket while listening, but she isn’t there at all! She did a wonderful job allowing us to feel each emotion of each character!

Wonderful narration. Questionable story.
Unsure as to why Wuthering Heights is the “must read” classic that it is. No doubt Emily Brontë is a magnificently gifted writer, and the characters are complex. However, I found the plot disjointed and on the whole...bland. There was not one character the reader could possibly have sympathy for or even root for, and for such a long novel there was little to no plot. On the whole I was disappointed in the story. Emily Bronte wrote very interesting characters but gave them almost nothing to do.

Great narration for an indispensable classic. The characters are so vile and crooked that I had to listen in parts, the story is so intense. This is a reread for me, my first on paperback. The audio version provided more realism and discovery.

Gothic Romance — Well-Told and Well-Read
Those who misunderstand the word "romance" and come into this novel expecting to find a star-crossed story of unrequited love will be more than a little disappointed. Passion, yes. Emotion, for sure. But classical lovers, not so much.
The characters in this story move the reader not so much by the strength of their own character but by the tragic way they became who they are, and how wrongs done to them in past generations bleed into the future.
I don't read a lot of fiction but was impressed with what I think are unique aspects of how Emily Brontë tells this story. The use of multiple first-person narrators lends verisimilitude to the description of the events. There are 2 major and maybe 3-4 minor narrators. Oddly, the primary narrator, Nelly Dean, who is an observer adjacent to much of the story, might be the only admirable character in this odd tale.
It's fascinating to me to find that I don't have to love or admire the main characters, nor be sympathetic to their wants and needs, to find the story a good one. I don't believe Brontë tries to get me to identify with any of them. But she still makes me strongly feel ways about the story.
People complain about the reader (Patricia Routledge), but they're really complaining about the way certain characters are written. Joseph speaks with a Yorkshire accent that is written out phonetically in the book. Routledge reproduces this accent, which is undecipherable to the uninitiated. You can get enough words and guess by the way he speaks exactly what he is thinking. And it's no worse (better, perhaps) than sister Charlotte's "Jane Eyre", in which Adele often speaks in her native French — with no translation offered for the reader.
This book is well out of my comfort zone but I'm very happy to have read it. I'll likely read it again.

Wuthering Heights
I thouroughly enjoyed listening to Patricia Ruthledege narrate the Wuthering Heights. This is the first time I have listened to an audible book. Her narration helped me to mentally envison the story. I would be very intrusted in listening to other audible books, by Patricia Ruthledge or another narrator if they are as good as her.

Patricia Routledge is fantastic!
This novel was written 170 years ago but the story of human nature is still the same. Love and torment come together beautifully in Brontë's well deserved classic.
Patricia Routledge's performance is superb. You will have to remind yourself that all the voices are from one person. She is a rare talent. I thoroughly enjoyed this audio book.
