Book Review: Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte - Comments Page 2

Author: BonniePublished: May 23, 2006 at 4:44 am 34 comments

This classic is an anti-romance, exactly the opposite of what I had been expecting.

I was surprised by how much I liked Wuthering Heights because I didn't agree with some of the assumptions, felt lost in the class-related themes, and didn't especially like any of the characters. But something about this class still had me reading compulsively.…

    I READ THIS BOOK WHEN I WAS 14, WHEN WE HAD TO WRITE A BOOK REVIEW OF WUTHERING HEIGHTS. IT WAS A PART OF OUR PROJECT FOR OUR SUMMER VACATIONS. IT IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE NOVELS AND I REALLY WISH IT WAS NOT EMILY'S FIRST AND LAST NOVEL.I WILL LOVE TO SEE A MOVIE MADE ON THIS BOOK

    You have a problem with Johnny Depp? huh? He is the most AWESOME actor in the world. Skills others tend to lack are abundant in him.

    Bronte did an excellent job of working out the plot before she had to. Heathcliff's revenge, and how comprehensive it was, was absolutely brilliant. Very sad, though, all the lives that could be ruined by poorly made choices. Fantastically written... it's kind of sad Bronte didn't get to see how greatly loved it would be...

    Lost: don't be so concerned about the ending. I don't think it'll bug you. Finish the book!

    Of course Wuthering Heights is very rich op psychological, social .....issues. Any way I think this is one of the most fantastic novel that i have ever read and the most interesting thing is how a writer like that little girle (EMILY) can creat this. I am kurd and my i was English literature student and according to all what i have already read this is the most one which affected me, but is this novel while reading is a dream or a nghtmare.

    I am so in love with this novel! I am reading it on my third way round, I love the way Emily decribes/puts across Catherines and Heathcliffs love for each other and how it makes you think that there might actually be ghosts! Because you believe that they belong together, I hope to do this novel at GCSE-I think I would use your review for help.
    I don't believe that the characters are inhuman either- I believe thay are what any person is when they have gone throught- what the characters went throught, for instance-Heathcliff only has Cathy! Thats what he lives for, when Emiy Bronte says(Catherine says) "I am Heathcliff" it shows so many of the feelings in one sentance.
