Summary
Is Mr。 Heathcliff a man？ If so， is he mad？ And if not， is he a devil？
Set on the bleak moors of Yorkshire， Lockwood is forced to seek shelter at Wuthering Heights， the home of his new landlord， Heathcliff。 The intense and wildly passionate Heathcliff tells the story of his life， his all-consuming love for Catherine Earnshaw and the doomed outcome of that relationship， leading to his revenge。 Poetic， complex and grand in its scope， Emily Brontë's masterpiece is considered one of the most unique gothic novels of its time。

Probably 3。5/3。75。 At first I found the book quite confusing because the main characters are so unlikable， almost evil。 Thinking about the whole story now I can see how it could be perceived as romantic but this is a rather dark novel。 Overall， I did enjoy it and was quite satisfied with the ending。

"On je više ja nego što sam i sama。 Bilo od čega da su naše duše sazdane， njegova i moja su iste。""Moja ljubav prema Hitklifu liči na večite stene ispod površine; izvor malo vidljive radosti ali neophodne。""Volim ga više nego sebe。 A evo po čemu ti znam: svako veče se molim da da nadživim， jer više volim da budem nesrećna ja nego on - to dokazuje da ga volim više nego sebe。""Šta mene ne podseća na nju， šta， za mene， nije povezano sa njom？ Ne mogu pogledati u taj pod， a da mi se ne ukaže njen lik "On je više ja nego što sam i sama。 Bilo od čega da su naše duše sazdane， njegova i moja su iste。""Moja ljubav prema Hitklifu liči na večite stene ispod površine; izvor malo vidljive radosti ali neophodne。""Volim ga više nego sebe。 A evo po čemu ti znam: svako veče se molim da da nadživim， jer više volim da budem nesrećna ja nego on - to dokazuje da ga volim više nego sebe。""Šta mene ne podseća na nju， šta， za mene， nije povezano sa njom？ Ne mogu pogledati u taj pod， a da mi se ne ukaže njen lik na pločama！ U svakom obliku， svakom drvetu - okružen sam njenom slikom！ Najobičnija lica ljudi i žena - moje sopstvene crte - rugaju mi se sličnošću sa njom。 Čitav svet je stravičan zbir podsećanja da je postojala， i da sam je izgubio！" 。。。more

Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo boring！！！ Holy fuck！！！ Nothing happens！！ The plot never thickens it just swills around itself！！ Everyone sucks at communication， they're all committed fully to their own suffering， it's like being in a house full of junkies except you're willfully reading it instead - why？！？！？！ Why did I subject myself to that？？？There was a few okay passages tho that describe pretty poetically the disgusting gravity a toxic love affair can hold over one。It took Soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo boring！！！ Holy fuck！！！ Nothing happens！！ The plot never thickens it just swills around itself！！ Everyone sucks at communication， they're all committed fully to their own suffering， it's like being in a house full of junkies except you're willfully reading it instead - why？！？！？！ Why did I subject myself to that？？？There was a few okay passages tho that describe pretty poetically the disgusting gravity a toxic love affair can hold over one。It took me like over a year to read， that's how boring it was！ Ugh！！ 。。。more

i think i started with a perception of this book which is barely recognizable in context of wuthering heights。 i thought this was a gothic love story， a story of angst。 but it is not。 i have not been very open minded about the book， which gave me a hard time recognizing （and even reading） the Bronte's exceptional feat。 the book is named after the house of wuthering heights， which is an indifferent， dreadful nightmare land， and hence the story isn't about love but about the life inside the house。 i think i started with a perception of this book which is barely recognizable in context of wuthering heights。 i thought this was a gothic love story， a story of angst。 but it is not。 i have not been very open minded about the book， which gave me a hard time recognizing （and even reading） the Bronte's exceptional feat。 the book is named after the house of wuthering heights， which is an indifferent， dreadful nightmare land， and hence the story isn't about love but about the life inside the house。i will re-read it once i'm older。 i am only 16 it's so soul sucking。 i wish I didn't think about it but I can't help but think about itMr。 Lockwood correctly refers to the residents of Wuthering Heights repeatedly as "inmates"。 Wuthering Heights is truly hell。 I loved the ending！ 。。。more

At first， I had a hard time continuing with this book after being appalled with Heathcliff’s character。 So， I put it aside for awhile discouraged to read on。 However， I am extremely glad to have picked it back up and finished it。 The unusual setting， the characters， and the intensity and passion of the story was so different from what I was used to reading。 The tragic longing to be with the ones they loved even in death was so poisonous and obsessive， yet so captivating。 Brontë is brilliant in h At first， I had a hard time continuing with this book after being appalled with Heathcliff’s character。 So， I put it aside for awhile discouraged to read on。 However， I am extremely glad to have picked it back up and finished it。 The unusual setting， the characters， and the intensity and passion of the story was so different from what I was used to reading。 The tragic longing to be with the ones they loved even in death was so poisonous and obsessive， yet so captivating。 Brontë is brilliant in her detailed description of feelings which really allowed a reader to sympathise with each character。 I have grown to love this work and appreciate every single character large and small， faults and all。 Even Heathcliff， I have grown to understand。 His story is so sad and tragic and he is definitely a product of mistreatment and injustice。 It is hard to hate him for longing to be with the one he loved， yet was so unjustly barred。So wonderfully emotional and heartbreaking。 。。。more

I’ve only just finished this book for the first time so I won’t say much; it deserves a re-read in a few months so I can really grasp the beauty of this story。It’s one of those books that， once finished， have you wondering if you’ll ever read another book again; after all， what’s the point？ On the surface it’s a story of horrible events: death， deceit， plotting， cursing， haunting， revenge， sickness。 And indeed it has all these things， but between them， in the small spaces between each word， ther I’ve only just finished this book for the first time so I won’t say much; it deserves a re-read in a few months so I can really grasp the beauty of this story。It’s one of those books that， once finished， have you wondering if you’ll ever read another book again; after all， what’s the point？ On the surface it’s a story of horrible events: death， deceit， plotting， cursing， haunting， revenge， sickness。 And indeed it has all these things， but between them， in the small spaces between each word， there’s love。 Passionate， consuming love。 The sort of love that damages everything around it。 And Brontë delivers it masterfully。 To me this is Exhibit A of what makes a great author， as opposed to a good one。 A good author can write characters we hate and characters we love; characters we support and characters we hope to fail。 But great authors - a group in which Emily Brontë has found a place - can write characters we love to hate， and hate to love。 Catherine and Heathcliff are two people who， despite their wretchedness， I adore。 。。。more

Ein ganz merkwürdiges Buch。 Durch die erste Hälfte habe ich mich einfach nur durchgequält， die zweite war dann tatsächlich interessant， das Ende wieder komisch。Absolut nicht zum Durchlesen geeignet， ich habe selten für ein Buch so lange gebraucht und habe an einem Tag nie mehr als 50 Seiten geschafft （und die haben sich schon wie 200 angefühlt）。Anders als die meisten， bin ich nicht der Meinung， dass es in dem Buch um die Liebesgeschichte von Catherine und Heathcliff geht （mal ganz ehrlich: wo so Ein ganz merkwürdiges Buch。 Durch die erste Hälfte habe ich mich einfach nur durchgequält， die zweite war dann tatsächlich interessant， das Ende wieder komisch。Absolut nicht zum Durchlesen geeignet， ich habe selten für ein Buch so lange gebraucht und habe an einem Tag nie mehr als 50 Seiten geschafft （und die haben sich schon wie 200 angefühlt）。Anders als die meisten， bin ich nicht der Meinung， dass es in dem Buch um die Liebesgeschichte von Catherine und Heathcliff geht （mal ganz ehrlich: wo soll die auch gewesen sein？？）， sondern vielmehr und das „Vermächtnis“ der beiden zentraler ist。 Vielmehr dienen die beiden als Beispiel von Unmoral und wie diese die Mitmenschen beeinflusst。 Trotzdem habe ich nicht wirklich was aus dem Buch mitgenommen。 Was will Emily mir sagen？ Böse Menschen bleiben böse？ Egoistische Menschen sind auf ewig egoistisch？ Gute Seelen auf ewig gut？Ein ganz merkwürdiges Buch， was ich nicht noch einmal lesen werde。 。。。more

I've never read anything like this before， but it being a classic it felt like something I should make time for。 It took a while for me to get into it， due to the language used， but upon finishing it I'm left with an awed feeling， I actually really enjoyed it！ Strange， as none of the characters are particularly likeable， quite the contrary， and it being written so long ago， it's not my usual cup of tea at all。 I also had to completely skip all of Joseph's parts as it hurt too much to try and wor I've never read anything like this before， but it being a classic it felt like something I should make time for。 It took a while for me to get into it， due to the language used， but upon finishing it I'm left with an awed feeling， I actually really enjoyed it！ Strange， as none of the characters are particularly likeable， quite the contrary， and it being written so long ago， it's not my usual cup of tea at all。 I also had to completely skip all of Joseph's parts as it hurt too much to try and work out what he was saying， but don't feel I missed much。 Honestly， mostly all the characters are awful and mean-spirited， and even the romance is very toxic。 But as I say， I was very invested and still finished it thinking 'wow'， and I can see why it's enjoyed by so many， and stood the test of time。 Great book。 。。。more

I've read Charlotte and Anne Bronte's works several times， but I've tried reading Wuthering Heights either 2 or 3 times previous and just couldn't get into it。 I did finally finish the book this time。 To say that I enjoyed such an intense， brooding， violent book would be overstating it， but I readily admit being sucked in to the maelstrom， against my will。 Which was somewhat surprising， as there really isn't a redeeming character in the book。 My biggest frustration was the narrative style。 Not o I've read Charlotte and Anne Bronte's works several times， but I've tried reading Wuthering Heights either 2 or 3 times previous and just couldn't get into it。 I did finally finish the book this time。 To say that I enjoyed such an intense， brooding， violent book would be overstating it， but I readily admit being sucked in to the maelstrom， against my will。 Which was somewhat surprising， as there really isn't a redeeming character in the book。 My biggest frustration was the narrative style。 Not only did it make it harder to get in the book in the beginning （it took me 4 tries！）， but Nelly is a suspect narrator。 Since she has her own role to play in the insanity， one has to question her motives as she tells the story。 。。。more

This was a long overdue reread for me。 It has been years since I visited this world and I am so glad I did。 The world is very dark and the characters are unremarkable and brooding which is befitting the desolate location they live in。 Haunting atmosphere as well as the characters。 I feel like this was exactly how it was growing up in that area。 Lonely and Dark。 I definitely recommend this classic。 I feel it correctly represents the country side living centuries ago。

Of all the Bronte sister books THIS is my favorite。 True， it is a bit rough around the edges and the dialect makes reading rather cumbersome but once you get through a few chapters you will become enraptured by the dark content。
