☆ENGLISH ONLY☆コミュのWuthering Heights

I read the novel of Wuthering Heights. This novel was written
by Emily Bronte in 1847, and she died after one year.
She was thirty years old. I don't know whether thirty years
old were young or not in those days.

I wonder how feeling she had at her death. Did she have
mortification, or did she accept her death calmly?
Anyway she left the great novel in the world literary
history.

This novel is the story of intense love between
Heathcliff and Catherine. Heathcliff was a deserted child.
He was a person of unknown parentage.
Where did he come from?
But we don't know where we come from.
Where do we come from? God only knows it.

I wonder the reason that Emily could have this passionate
idea. Emily was born in a home of a priest, and she had not
gone away on trips during almost all of her life.

This novel shows us the conflict between human intelligence
and instinct. Instinct always win intelligence, but
interpretation is not necessary for this novel.

I am only attracted to their tragic love, and I have to
believe the existence beyond human beings.

I've watched th movie and it didn't really do anything for me

For love and strife, I much prefer
'North and South' by Elizabeth Gaskell
or 'Jane Eyre' by Charlotte Brontë.

Oh and of course, Pride and Predjudice.

All of these books/movies are so much more riveting

I find books written in the 18th and 19th century very hard
going. One of my favourite authors is Daphne du Maurier.
Perhaps her most famous book is "Rebecca". I think you will
like "Rebecca".

You HAVE to read the book. Movies don't tell you what people are thinking, unless there's narration throughout the entire film.
