Wuthering Heights can also be described as the long-term effects of abuse among family members and/or members of the same household. Hindley abused Heathcliff when he was younger, and then Heathcliff carried that abuse forward into several generations. He not only gets his revenge on Hindley, but he also abuses his wife, his rival's son, his own son, and arguably even his servants.

@Albinojackrussel 2 жыл бұрын
And Hindleys father neglected him before that. The cycle only stops when the younger generations make a conscious choice to stop lashing out and behave in ways other than the ones they were taught by their abusive ward. This was exactly my reading of it. I really cannot see how anyone thinks it's a love story when the people involved in the "love" are only alive and adults for a tiny portion of the book.

So basically, the reason that *Wuthering Heights* was controversial was mainly that it criticized Victorian society and the general public wasn’t quite ready to acknowledge how awful society was. That’s interesting. The book itself sounds interesting too, so I should read it at some point

I'd recommend it. Though I honestly still don't know how I feel about it. I want to say I rated it 3.5/5 stars but it doesn't seem like a fair rating. I hated ALL the characters, but I also felt so bad for them as well. I honestly think Bronte was an amazing writer, and the book is beautifully written. I think it's a mark of a great writer to make you hate and love a character and Bronte does it with pretty much every character in the novel.

Frankly I never understood why anyone would think of Wuthering Heights has a love story it is a novel of revenge. It is remarkable about just how fixated Heathcliff is on revenge so that only very near the end of the novel does Heathcliff let go of his revenge and even so he never repents or regrets his actions. It is a very disturbing novel and most certainly not a gothic romance.

But as things are she would degrade herself by marrying Heathcliff so he will never find out how much she loves him. As she puts it: her love for Linton is a passing thing, time will change it as autumn changes the leaves on the trees. Her love for Heathcliff is like the rocks beneath: the source of very little delight, but irreplaceable.

One of the reasons Hindley hated Heathcliff so much was that Heathcliff was an adopted street urchin his father brought home instead of presents from his trip to London. Petty, but from there and his bond with Catherine, it sets things up nicely to foster that division between the family, like a cuckoo egg in a nest.

I must have read some kind of bootleg version when I read this book because in the version that I read, Heathcliff wasn't just a street urchin, he was a gypsy. Book didn't specify Roma or Sinti and tbh I don't really care but in the environment of rural victorian England that would have made it so much worse.

That was a bizarre time in class.

Ok, after watching the video, I think I know WHY I hated that book. I absolutely despised Heathcliff, like hated him beyond hatred. He did messed up things, and I felt like the book wasnt acknowledging that they were messed up. That being said, I was an early teen when reading it, and I didnt realize the point of the book kinda was the fact he does messed up things. As in, with the situation he was in, he became the man he was out of necessity. That being said, I dont think ill be adding this book to my favourites list, but for the alternative reason of it simply being a genre I'm not into. As an ace person, I've always struggled connecting to romance novels, but just because I personally don't love it, doesnt make it bad.

Please at some point do Why You Should Read: The Godfather. It offers a look behind the closed doors of the past, and in doing so reveals a surprising amount about the present.

Generally, I don't care for stories where I despise the main characters. And I absolutely loathe nearly _all_ the characters in this book (except for, I think, 2-3 side characters), which made it really hard for me to get through or enjoy the novel (similar to my feelings on the show, 'Breaking Bad'). Bronte made me root for Catherine's and Heathcliff's downfalls so bad. However, I can appreciate that this novel was excellent in how she crafted her characters and explored the harsher and devastating sides of the concept of "love" and the duality of the human nature in the orderliness of society. So, objectively, I can say this is a good novel, but it'll never be one I prefer.

I always found Catherine absolutely unbearable, only finding solace in the kindred spirit of the uncouth Heathcliffe, so in the end I considered them deserving to be dead together, being each others comfort and torment in death as in life. Seriously tho, Catherine was an absolute B.

I absolutely LOVE this channel and this series, but I'm going to have to disagree on this one. As someone who VOLUNTARILY read Wuthering Heights and actually ENJOYED it, I still cannot, in good conscience, recommend it to anybody else. The writing is very difficult to get through and there is not a single likeable character. I enjoyed the reading challenge and there ARE some good lines like: "Your presence is a moral poison". And I saw the story as two obsessive sociopaths falling in love and destroying everything around them. But it's certainly not everyone's cup of tea. It's an intense, dark, depressing story and not one I would impose on anyone. Of course you should give it a try, but I cannot say it's objectively a good book.
