    A few notes on Wuthering Heights

    I just finished rereading Wuthering Heights. I first read the book about forty years ago. In my opinion, Wuthering Heights is an unique novel. No other novel approaches it in character, plot and theme. It is a great novel, no doubt about it. Emily Bronte was ahead of her time. Considering that she wrote Wuthering Heights in the late 1840s, it's amazing what she does with character. All of the main characters are anti-social and far from being admirable. It is a pessimistic novel. It stands head and shoulders above all the other novels written during that time. Wuthering Heights must be considered one of the great novels of all time.
