The Marjolein Bastin Classics Series is a chance to rediscover classic literature in collectible, luxuriously illustrated volumes. For the first time ever, the internationally celebrated artwork of Marjolein Bastin graces the pages of a timeless classic, Wuthering Heights, the story of Heathcliff and Catherine. Beyond bringing these stories to life, Bastin’s series adds elaborately designed ephemera, such as four-color maps, letters, family trees, and sheet music. Whether an ideal gift for a Brontë devotee or a treat to yourself, the Marjolein Bastin Classics Series, as a set or individually purchased, is perfect for anyone who feels a connection to these enduring literary gems.
Discover anew the dramatic world of Wuthering Heights. The Earnshaw family estate of Wuthering Heights lies in the rough moorland of West Yorkshire; it is here that orphan boy Heathcliff finds a permanent home with Mr. Earnshaw, his son Hindley, and his daughter Catherine. While Hindley torments his new brother, Catherine welcomes him into the family, and the two become inseparable. After Mr. Earnshaw’s death, however, Heathcliff becomes an outcast and Hindley squanders his inheritance. Catherine feels compelled to marry the wealthy neighbor, Edgar Linton, instead of her true love. Heathcliff is crushed, vowing to seek revenge on both families. Torn by his conflicting passions, Heathcliff risks everything for love, and neither time nor space—not even death—will stop him.

Notă biografică
Marjolein Bastin’s passion for the natural world is of a universal quality that appeals to people the world over. You can find Marjolein’s artwork on greeting cards, calendars, dinnerware, bedding, gifts, and many other products. But for Marjolein, only one thing remains important: spend every day behind her desk painting the natural world around her.
She also writes and illustrates children’s books featuring the endearing Vera the Mouse character, which she created. Through her art and words, Marjolein offers people a simple reminder to pause and enjoy nature and allow it to be a source of serenity, energy, and healing. Finding inspiration in a bird lighting on a branch or a leaf drying in the autumn sun, Marjolein takes long walks each afternoon to seek new ideas for her artwork and her writings. Marjolein and her husband, Gaston, divide their time between country homes in Holland, Switzerland, and in Missouri, as well a tropical retreat in the Cayman Islands. Each setting provides a unique glimpse of what nature has to offer throughout the world. The couple has a son, Mischa, a daughter, Sanna, and two grandchildren.
