Haworth is a small village in West Yorkshire, in the north of England. Many visitors go there because the Brontë family lived in the house beside the church. Charlotte, Emily and Anne Brontë wrote famous books; Emily’s Wuthering Heights is set in the wild, open hills around the village. Though actually, Haworth today is a busy tourist place, with shops and a steam train. It is not as quiet as the book, even if the hills still feel empty and windy. The name is said HOW-uth, not “hay-worth.”
霍沃斯(英國約克郡西區的村子,勃朗特姊妹住過。《咆哮山莊》寫的就是附近的山野。台灣書名是《咆哮山莊》,中國大陸較常用《呼嘯山莊》。)
