Studying Wuthering Heights: The Complete Text and Revision Guide

Absolutely informative and well-presented; "Studying Wuthering Heights" provides one of the best exam preparation.

A fantastic accompaniment to the book, for anyone studying Wuthering Heights. In depth analysis, that would prove very valuable.

This is an excellent study guide that opens up the complexities of Wuthering Heights, a novel which is too often restricted to a Gothic love story. As with the other Penguin audio study guides that I've reviewed, the critical material is at the start followed by the full audio of the text - exactly the way I'd structure it.

There is perhaps a bit too much dependency on Gilbert and Gubar's canonical 'The Madwoman in the Attic', and I'd hope that A level teachers widen the range of literature that students can have access to.

That said, this touches on many contemporary approaches to Bronte's work from the radical interrogation of patriarchy to the way it boldly touches on Victorian taboos such as quasi-incest and even Heathcliff's morbid interest in Cathy's dead body. It also covers all the standard A level requirements such as character analyses, narrative structure, genre and some brief context. I especially like the extended key quotations which draw attention to important points but doesn't comment on why: a useful tool for encouraging students' close reading and own interpretations.

There's a huge amount of material here that should stimulate deeper approaches to the book, and the audio-text may help students struggling with the formal language to engage with this rich text. Definitely an excellent adjunct to reading the book.

Depending on the type of learner that you are, listening to audiobook study guides can really help cement points and quotations in your head. I wish this guide had been available for my daughter when she was studying this text.

It would be more helpful if the sections had header names, eg Main Characters, Themes, etc to make it easier to study around a topic.

I enjoyed this study of Wuthering Heights. Wuthering Heights is one of, if not my favourite book of all time, so it was interesting to read notes on the current scholarly views of the book and its themes and characters. It was a very well executed and organised study. It was very comprehensive and gave me things to think about which I hadn't perhaps thought of myself.. I enjoyed listening to it. and the narrator did a very good job of reading clearly and concisely.

Thank you very much to the publisher and Netgalley for this free copy of this audiobook in exchange for my honest review.

A good study version with brief synopsis of first the entire book and then a chapter by chapter summary following each chapter, with the narrator for the book a different person than the narrator for the summary. I'm sure this will help some to follow the story, especially those who are learning English as a second language.

Excellent resource for my students for their exams. I will certainly use it in my curriculum. There is an excellent reading of the text and contains insightful tips

I would say that this is an excellent resource even beyond A-level (useful to me at Postgraduate level). It’s in depth and the narration is well-paced, which isn’t always an easy feat to achieve in study guides
