Lady Luck commented:
Considering Wuthering Heights was published in1847 and Emily Brontë wrote it between December 1845 and July 1846, it is an excellent effort for a woman in that day and age, especially to get it accepted in such a male dominated society.

Oh absolutely, and it's only in more modern times that the book has been appreciated for what it is. It certainly wasn't well thought of when it was first released. It's one of those books that is actually quite hard to describe, but I think what captures so many people is the beautiful imagery and the wild passion, which you enjoy despite the characters and plot.

I found it difficult to get into as well but then it seems to grab you. I found the whole story to be very depressing though and each character had serious dark undertones. I usually prefer a story that is compelling and uplifting but Wuthering Heights just left me pondering the end story.
