Alison Booth, Professor of English at the University of Virginia with a Ph.D. from Princeton (1986), specializes in Victorian studies, the novel, and women writers, while her teaching and research also range broadly--across the Atlantic and up to contemporary cultural studies--to encompass narrative theory, biography and autobiography, and celebrity. Her numerous articles and essays have appeared in distinguished journals and collections. She is the author of two acclaimed critical books: the prize-winning How to Make It as a Woman: Collective Biographical History from Victoria to the Present (2004), and Greatness Engendered: George Eliot and Virginia Woolf (1992), and co-editor of the Norton Introduction to Literature (now in its ninth edition). Her current research, reflected in the Longman Cultural Edition of WutheringHeights, involves the popular genre of "homes and haunts" of famous people, literary tourism, and the character of famous writers' houses.

Wuthering Heights is a prescribed text book for our senior students of English but it is quite inaccessible for our weaker students who are unable to read the original independently. I was very happy with this simplified version as it allowed access to this classic love story and students who find reading challenging were able to enjoy the story without becoming lost in the language.

A-Level York Notes for 'Wuthering Heights'
I didn't find this useful at all. I found it quite simplistic and it told me what I already know. I wouldn't recommend this.
