Book Synopsis
During two research trips to Japan, Judith Pascoe was fascinated to discover the popularity that Emily Brontë's novel Wuthering Heights has enjoyed there. On the Bullet Train with Emily Brontë is Pascoe's account of her quest to discover the reasons for the continuous Japanese embrace of Wuthering Heights, including varied and surprising adaptations of the novel.

Trade Review
A beautifully written, innovative book that brings together personal memoir and an ethnographic scholarly study of translation and transnational flows of culture focused around the reception of Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights. The author’s experience of Japan and the complex intersections of Wuthering Heights with Japanese culture are artfully layered and integrated."" - Adela Pinch, University of Michigan
