咆哮山莊

內容簡介

內容簡介 談到英國經典文學，必定無法忽略勃朗特三姊妹，出生於寒冷荒涼的約克郡哈沃斯，她們卻在這片遼闊孤寂的荒原上透過想像力創造出各種故事，甚至孕育後來的經典作品《簡愛》、《咆哮山莊》、《荒野莊園的房客》等。《咆哮山莊》出版後雖然在保守封建的維多利亞社會遭到許多抨擊，認為其中的內容瘋狂極具毀滅性、文字過於煽情奔放、角色個性野蠻且殘忍，甚至評論「怎麼會有人可以讀完這整本書而沒有看完前12章後就自殺？」，但也有許多評論認為儘管這本書的劇情令人震驚且難以釋懷，卻呈現出真實的人性、愛與恨，一生僅留下詩作與這本小說的作者，艾蜜莉‧勃朗特的才華也在幾個世紀後獲得正名與承認。故事由在恩肖家長年擔任女僕的奈莉，對來租下畫眉山莊的年輕人洛克伍德娓娓道來這段驚世駭俗的愛情故事，描述咆哮山莊老主人恩肖先生從利物浦帶回來的男孩─希斯克里夫，得到恩肖老先生的寵愛，卻引起長子辛德雷的憎恨，老主人去世後，辛德雷開始無所不用其極地虐待、咒罵、鄙視希斯克里夫，只有長女凱薩琳真心理解他，希斯克里夫與凱薩琳深深相戀，但辛德雷早已安排好將妹妹嫁給畫眉山莊的繼承人艾德加，故意硬生生拆散這對戀人，凱薩琳在家族的壓力與社會禮俗的教條規範下，最終選擇嫁給艾德加。遭到打擊的希斯克里夫則懷報強烈的恨意與復仇心，展開對辛德雷與艾德加的報仇，以及他最不能原諒、卻又深愛的凱薩琳...“It is as if [Brontë] could tear up all that we know human beings by, and fill these unrecognisable transparencies with such a gust of life that they transcend reality. Hers, then, is the rarest of all powers. She could free life from its dependence on facts; with a few touches indicate the spirit of a face so that it needs no body; by speaking of the moor make the wind blow and the thunder roar.” —Virginia Woolf
