"That minx, Catherine Linton, or Earnshaw, or however she was called - wicked little soul! She told me she had been walking the earth these twenty years: a just punishment for her mortal transgressions, I've no doubt!"

Editorial Reviews

“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.”
