Description: The classic novel brought to life in full color!
Emily Brontë's only novel is famous the world over and is the favorite classic of many readers. It is easy to see why, with hardship, insanity, cruelty, frustrated love, and ghosts. This is the classic tale presented as a full-color library bound graphic novel, featuring beautiful hand-painted watercolor artwork.

The traditional approach taken to the art creates a wonderful sensory experience to engage any reader, while staying true to the original prose novel by utilizing authentic text and dialogue.

Designed to encourage readers to enjoy classical literature, titles in the Classical Comics range stay true to the original vision of the authors. They also offer alternative text versions to cater for different readership levels. This title has been moderately and sympathetically abridged from the original text to fit within the graphic novel format.

Review Quotes: "Graphic versions of canonical texts are to be welcomed because, along with film versions, they often lead readers to the originals and assist with the understanding and appreciation of them. This applies in particular to Classical Comics, with its high standards in the use of sequential art."
