Wuthering Heights (British Library Deluxe Facsimile Edition): A Novel in Two Volumes

This exquisite facsimile of the two-volume first edition of Emily’s beloved novel is an essential keepsake for her many admirers, who are celebrating the book in 2026 with the cinematic release featuring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordie and the album by Charlie XcX

Created in association with the British Library, this authoritative set features a finely crafted facsimile of the original first edition, presented in an elegant box adorned with marbled paper, deckled edges, and other period-appropriate decorative details. The result is a thoughtful homage to the artistry and craftsmanship of nineteenth-century book design. 

Emily’s iconic novel explores themes of love and obsession, jealousy and revenge, abuse and adoration, social class conflict and the supernatural. The narrative unfolds through multiple perspectives, telling the destructive and all-consuming love story of Catherine and Heathcliff—two of English literature’s most unforgettable and complex figures. 

Each volume is meticulously reproduced, bound in embossed leather, and presented alongside a third facsimile volume of Emily’s personal copy of the Brontë sisters’ collected poems. First published in 1846, the poetry volume includes Emily’s handwritten notes and marginalia. The set also features reproductions of rare handwritten poems preserved in the Brontë archive, folded and tied with a ribbon.
