A rare first-edition copy of Emily Brontë’s Gothic masterpiece “Wuthering Heights” is heading to auction for the first time in more than a century.
Christie’s auction house said that it’s the first copy of the novel in the publisher’s original cloth binding to be auctioned since 1908. Only about 250 copies of the first edition were printed, and this one has been in a private library since shortly after its publication in 1847.
