For all the jokes i made abt this in my updates i have to say this book is amazing. The portrayal of the bitter love between catherine and heathcliff which then burdens the 2nd generation and examples heathcliffs tyranny is just so well told.

In my opinion the best way to describe heathcliff and catherine is that heathcliff burned the world for her, whilst she burned him as the action would make his ashes hers.

Poor isabella and edgar who were truly sweet people just drawn into chaos by the hurricane of the wuthering heights lovers and the children who were used in an ultimatley vain power struggle of heathcliff's.

Theres just so much that can be sais for this book but i loved at the end the imagining of heathcliff and catherines spirits rambling the moors together, whilst i like to think edgar witnesses cathy and haretons ultimate happiness at the Grange is just such a well rounded ending to such a bitter battle of a book.

A classic; though not as noticeable as her sister's refined work, Emily uses raw talent and grand description to entice those who wonder about the basics of microcosmic, sheltered life.
