Classic Romance Collection - Volume II - Wuthering Heights - A Farewell to Arms - The Great Gatsby - Unabridged

The most romantic literary lovers in history: Heathcliff and Cathy. Frederic and Catherine. Daisy Buchanan and Jay Gatsby. Now, all three of their classic stories are collected in one volume: the Classic Romance Collection - Volume II featuring Emily Brontë's "Wuthering Heights," Ernest Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms" and F. Scott Fitzgerald's "The Great Gatsby." First, we head to the English moors for "Wuthering Heights," the tale of Heathcliff and Catherine; he, an orphan taken in by a kindly benefactor, she, a spirited country girl who loves Heathcliff, but aspires to a higher station. As family turmoil, jealousy and ambition drive the couple apart, the story becomes a tragic tale of love deferred. Truly one of the great romance novels of all time. Next, "A Farewell to Arms," Ernest Hemingway's towering tale of love during wartime. Frederic Henry is an American medic serving in the Italian army during the First World War who meets and falls in love with an English nurse named Catherine Berkley. Catherine has lost her fiancé in battle and initially rebuffs Frederic's advances, but when he is wounded at the Italian front and sent to her hospital for treatment, their romance blossoms, leading the two lovers to attempt to flee the conflict and start a life together. Finally, we have F. Scott Fitzgerald's breathtaking novel of love, friendship and tragedy in 1920's New York, "The Great Gatsby," wherein we follow the story of Nick Carraway who befriends his mysterious neighbor, the enigmatic and fabulously wealthy Jay Gatsby, a man determined to rekindle his romance with the now-married Daisy Buchanan, for whom he pines. Three classic novels of love, drama and romance collected together for the first time, these books are presented in their original and unabridged format.
