"A powerful story beautifully told, highly recommended on audio." -AudioFile Magazine What Souls Are Made Of, British Fantasy Award-winning author Tasha Suri's masterful new take on Brontë's Wuthering Heights, will leave listeners breathless. Sometimes, lost things find their way home... Yorkshire, North of England, 1786. As the abandoned son of a lascar-a sailor from India-Heathcliff has spent most of his young life maligned as an "outsider." Now he's been flung into an alien life in the Yorkshire moors, where he clings to his birth father's language even though it makes the children of the house call him an animal, and the maids claim he speaks gibberish. Catherine is the younger child of the estate's owner, a daughter with light skin and brown curls and a mother that nobody talks about. Her father is grooming her for a place in proper society, and that's all that matters. Catherine knows she must mold herself into someone pretty and good and marriageable, even though it might destroy her spirit. As they occasionally flee into the moors to escape judgment and share the half-remembered language of their unknown kin, Catherine and Heathcliff come to find solace in each other. Deep down in their souls, they can feel they are the same. But when Catherine's father dies and the household's treatment of Heathcliff only grows more cruel, their relationship becomes strained and threatens to unravel. For how can they ever be together, when loving each other-and indeed, loving themselves-is as good as throwing themselves into poverty and death? Praise for What Souls Are Made Of: "A gorgeously reclaimed Gothic. ... I'm a Tasha Suri fan for life." -Chloe Gong, New York Times-bestselling author of These Violent Delights "With its brooding characters, gorgeous setting, and a romance that sparkles with electricity, this retelling of Wuthering Heights breathes fresh air into an old classic." -Stacey Lee, New York Times-bestselling author of The Downstairs Girl and Luck of the Titanic "Hopeful and heartbreaking, this remix of Brontë's classic is a magnificent, beautifully written ode to love, family and belonging." -Sangu Mandanna, author of The Celestial Trilogy and Kiki Kallira Breaks a Kingdom A Macmillan Audio production from Feiwel & Friends. Tasha Suri is an award-winning author, occasional librarian and cat owner. Her South Asian influenced epic fantasy novels include The Books of Ambha duology (Empire of Sand and Realm of Ash), and The Jasmine Throne. When she isn't writing, Tasha likes to cry over TV shows, buy too many notebooks, and indulge her geeky passion for reading about South Asian history. She lives with her family in a mildly haunted house in London. What Souls Are Made Of: A Wuthering Heights Remix is her YA debut. Empire of Sand: Named one of TIME's Top 100 Fantasy Books of All Time "An ode to the quiet, fierce strength of women. . . pure wonder." -Samantha Shannon, New York Times-bestselling author of The Priory of the Orange Tree "Stunning and enthralling." -S. A. Chakraborty, USA Today-bestselling author of The City of Brass "A darkly intricate, devastating, and utterly original story." -R. F.
