Wuthering Heights is a tale of lovers given over to madness and the effect their love has on others near to them. The reader deals with doubt as the characters change so drastically throughout the story. Emily Bronte weaves a psychologically challenging narrative that is so different from the common love story. Mr. Lockwood arrives at Wuthering Heights only to convey his gratitude toward his new landlord. Mr. Lockwood is the new tenant of Thrushcross Grange, owned by the morose and mysterious Mr. Heathcliff. He soon meets the others that live at Wuthering Heights – and a strange group they are. They give Mr. Lockwood reason to be worried and the only person who can explain their odd state is Mrs. Dean, the housekeeper of Thrushcross Grange. She tells the eerie, inscrutable tale of Wuthering Heights and its inhabitants that leaves Mr. Lockwood with more questions than answers. This was a haunting story with such unique characters. I enjoyed how different characters took center stage throughout the book. I would recommend this novel to anyone who enjoys classics and a story that leaves them bemused.
