Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, leaves Wuthering Heights, only to return years later as a wealthy and polished man. He proceeds to exact a terrible revenge for his former miseries. The action of the story is chaotic and unremittingly violent, but the accomplished handling of a complex structure, the evocative descriptions of the lonely moorland setting and the poetic grandeur of vision combine to make this unique novel a masterpiece of English literature.

This fanfiction takes place in the early 1970s, just as Pink Floyd rises to international fame. But behind the band, is the life that Emma and David have together. This story is written in Emma's perspective as you get to see how everything unfolds between the two of them. Heartfelt and also heartbreaking, this is the journey of Emma Hale and David Gilmour. It took me nearly 4 months to write this fanfiction, and it comes to 40 chapters in total! The tour dates and events are as accurate as possible- but it is just a fanfic so most of what I write about never really happened. You're always welcome to tell me your thoughts and opinions on the story! Enjoy! <3
