A Regular Black: The Hidden Wuthering Heights

Emily Brontė’s Wuthering Heights is the greatest romantic novel of the nineteenth century, with the handsome, sadistic Heathcliff at its centre. Yet who is Heathcliff? Where does his destructive anger come from? Might Emily Brontė be hinting at a far darker secret than has previously been suspected? This provocative documentary examines the themes of slavery and race coded into Brontė’s book, and discovers some uncanny parallels in the slave-owning families of Yorkshire.
