Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë

Houghton Mifflin Company | Riverside Literature Series | 1965

An attractive mid-century hardcover edition of Emily Brontë’s enduring Gothic classic, Wuthering Heights, published by Houghton Mifflin as part of the Riverside Literature Series.

This 1965 edition is particularly appealing for its distinctive publisher-designed pictorial binding. The front cover features a dramatic illustration of Heathcliff and Catherine in a striking palette of burgundy, blue, black, and cream, while the rear board depicts the windswept landscape and house. The artwork continues across the spine, giving the book an especially handsome appearance on the shelf.

A wonderful vintage reading copy as well as an attractive decorative edition for collectors of the Brontës, Gothic literature, and mid-century book design.
