It was so long since Emma had been at the Abbey, that as soon as she was satisfied of her father’s comfort, she was glad to leave him, and look around her; eager to refresh and correct her memory with more particular observation, more exact understanding of a house and grounds which must ever be so interesting to her and all her family.

people who hate wuthering heights never experienced the societal strangulation of transitioning from a feral, genderless child to a woman enmeshed within the physical and mental violence of the patriarchy, yearning to return to the paradisal wilderness of your youth and it shows !  

also just wanna emphasize the same can be said re: heathcliff except wrt racism and class, and that heathcliff’s later, unforgivable offenses are supposed to be unforgivable. the more violent and capitalistic and like his own oppressors heathcliff becomes, the further he is from the paradise of his youth and from catherine and cannot return to those things until he recognizes the shittiness of his actions
