In this unconventional study, David Holbrook sets out to demonstrate that this novel is a dramatization of Emily Bronte's own tormented psyche.

The author invokes the Jungian analysis offered by Dr Hannah Segal and others, and adds to these the insights of D.W. Winnicott, W.R.D. Fairbairn and R.D. Laing.
