What Mr Lockwood sees when he visits Wuthering Heights

[cto10121]

“Wuthering Heights isn’t a love story because how could Heathcliff abuse the supposed love of his life’s child—” Because he doesn’t see Cathy Jr. as Catherine’s kid. He sees her as Edgar’s kid.

Most happy endings are a concession to conformity, unfortunately.

“Oh!” she replied, “I don’t wish to limit his acquirements: still, he has no right to appropriate what is mine, and make it ridiculous to me with his vile mistakes and mispronunciations! Those books, both prose and verse, are consecrated to me by other associations; and I hate to have them debased and profaned in his mouth! Besides, of all, he has selected my favourite pieces that I love the most to repeat, as if out of deliberate malice.”

Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë

Cathy! Girl! Hareton has selected all your favourite books because he's in love with you. Cathy! This is why he gets so offended when you mock him, he is literally learning to read just for you

The way Hindley, Heathcliff, Nelly, Hareton and Cathy 2 are all variations of Cinderella…

What I say: Everything’s fine.

What I’m thinking: why does basically every Wuthering Heights adaptation completely ignore the second gen? Even when the adaptation spends time on the second gen, it doesn’t even give the second gen justice. Time between the first gen and the second gen should be equal, just like in the book. Heathcliff’s revenge on Hindley is just as important, even less than, his revenge on Edgar. And the effects of Heathcliff’s revenge on those around him is incredibly relevant in the second gen. But hey. It doesn’t have the toxicity and obsessiveness of the Heathcliff/Cathy “romance”, so what do I know.
