      Wuthering Heights is more than just a book title; it’s a whole (soggy) vibe. Get to the bottom of this Gothic masterpiece on Saturday, August 22, at 10:00 am in the South Pasadena Library Bradbury Conference Room.

      By Melanie Hooks

      One of several monthly book clubs, the Classics Club takes on books you’ve heard of but perhaps never read. Their August choice is Emily Brontë’s Gothic giant Wuthering Heights, a story made even more famous by the numerous film, radio, and television adaptations over the years.

      The recent steamy film starring Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie has raised plenty of curious eyebrows: Just how intense was this Victorian romance? And is it really a romance—or something darker? Can the literature live up to the hype?

      Grab a copy at the library, dive in, and bring your opinion along with the book.
