This book is so dark, depressive and everyone is so mean and pretentious! This twisted love story that curses other love stories... what a weird fairytale! I love Nelly! She is an adorable lady, but my favorite character is Hareton. This poor child! That's why I like this book so much. In the end everything turn out a-ok for him!
This is, by far, my favorite classic book! What distinguishes Emily Brontë from other classical authors is the fact that her books are more than rich people visiting other rich people's house... I understand that, at that time, there was nothing more interesting to do, but come on, get an occupation!

And yet every time I put the book down, I found it hard not to think about. The layers of narration, the parallels and contrasts between the characters, the vivid portraits of such flawed individuals, the complicated social dynamics in such a small and isolated community. All of these things are a fertile ground for discussion and dissection. I've found that I much more enjoy analyzing the story than reading a single word from the page, and as long as I am doing that and not subjecting myself to people who find the "romance" of the characters particularly *romantic*, that I can find something of value in the book.
