Wuthering Heights is a classic that was published in 1847 by Emily Bronte. Bronte is the author of Wuthering Heights. Bronte was born on June 30, 1818 and died on December 19, 1847 at age 30. Bronte was not just a novelist but she was a poet. She was an amazing writer and poet.
Wuthering Heights is about this man named Lockwood; Lockwood rents a house called Thrushcross Grange in the country England. His landlord was a wealthy man named Heathcliff; Heathcliff lives in the ancient manor of Wuthering Heights approximately four miles away. One day Lockwood asked his housekeeper to tell him about Heathcliff and the strange denizens of Wuthering Heights. Lockwood wrote all the stories that was told to him in his diary; therefore, most of the novel is the stories that he wrote down in his diary. In the book there were many important characters: therefore, the names are Catherine, Heathcliff, and Earnshaw. Heathcliff and Catherine were in love but they couldn’t be together because she was married to Mr. Earnshaw. Heathcliff found out they couldn’t be together so he planned machinations on Catherine and her family.
My favorite character is Heathcliff. He is my favorite because he is crazy and honest and does things that makes the novel interesting. Although he is my favorite, but I cannot connect with him like I do with Catherine.
If I could relate to any character in Wuthering Heights it would be Catherine. I have felt the same way she has when it comes to being stuck between two or more things, also she is a free-spirited girl and has many problems like she “wish [es] I [Catherine] were a girl again, half-savage and hardy, and free”. Wuthering Heights is a great novel and I would recommend for others to read it to. The type of individual that would like this is a deep, mystery, love kind of person.
