We saw a film which named Wuthering Heights this afternoon. After seeing it, I felt for Heathcliff at first. He begins his life as a servant in villa. He has a very happy childhood. Played with Catherine, he falls in love with her. Because of his poorness, Catherine marries with a rich man. With heart lost, he leaves. When he returns, he changes a lot. Being rich and gentle, he swears to take his revenge on Catherine and her family. He buys the Wuthering heights. In order to make Catherine sad, he marrys with her husband’s sister. However, not only Catherine but also Isabella Linton—Catherine’s sister—in—law is suffering . then they die one by one. In my opinion, heathcliff falls too deep in love so that he can’t see the world clearly. Firstly, he shouldn’t have married with Isabella if he doesn’t love her. Secondly, he should have treated her as his wife as possible as he can to let Catherine away from his world. But, what I can say is , love is indigestible. Facing reality,love is always seak. It has no power to fight. Most we hope, love can fight against everything. We shouldn’t make the same mistake like Catherine and Heathcliff.

Many people in the world are trying to find a perfect companion.Some of these may marry and not know what their new husband or wife is like.This kind of situation often leads to separation or hostility. Other situations may develop between two friends that stem from jealousy, desire for revenge, uncaring parents, etc. Emily Bront?'s Wuthering Heights displays several characteristics of destructive relationships. Three of these are uncaring parents, marriage without knowing the person, and jealousy.

Uncaring or unsympathizing parents are shown throughout this story to be an element of destructive relationships. Because Heathcliff gained all the attention from Mr. Earnshaw, Hindley became disassociated from his father. This separation continued until after Mr. Earnshaw had died.Another example is between Hindley and Hareton. Hindley became such a drunk and a gambler that he could not properly care for young Hareton. This led to a separation between Hareton and his father as well. One primary example of an uncaring parent is shown between Heathcliff and his son Linton.Heathcliff did not even want his son for anything except enacting a part of his revenge. This is shown by Linton's fear of Heathcliff and Heathcliff's enmity toward his son. Linton even says "... my father threatened me, and I dread him - I dread him!"(244) to express his feeling about Heathcliff.The hostility and separation between father and son in this book shows that uncaring parents can cause serious damage in relationships with their children.

A Book Report of Wuthering Heights

英语三班 王璇 20123704

Wuthering Heights is a book of Emily Bronte, published in 1847.Wuthering Heights was not well received or appreciated by the reading public, many of whom condemned it as sordid, vulgar, and unnatural--and author Emily Bronte went to her grave in 1848 believing that her only novel was a failure. It was not until 1850, when Wuthering Heights received a second printing with an introduction by Emily's sister Charlotte, that it attracted a wide readership. Today it is widely recognized as one of the great novels of English literature.

It is in my middle high school that the first time I read its Chinese version and I indulged in its intricate plot and love and hate between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathclif. Hitherto, I wander why the title of this book named Wuthering heights instead of Thrushcross Grange, or Heathclif Vengeance. As a matter of fact, when I read twice in English version and look up some information online, I seem to understand the intention of the author a bit. Wuthering is used to describe Yorkshire how bad weather it is. We can find “?Wuthering? being a provincial adjective, descriptive of the atmospheric tumult to which its station is exposed in stormy weather” in book. Meanwhile, “Wuthering” imply author tell readers a twisting and sad story.

On Wuthering Height

The book was written by Eily Bronte, who was a famous writer in England. She was born in a poor pastor family and lived a hard life. Elimly Bronte liked writing poem when she was a little girl, and Wuthering Height was the only novel she was written, The book describes a gipsy child Heathcliff adopted by the Heights’ owner, but he was insulted human dignity and failed the love. So he left the place for a time and got a fortune when he came back. He knew that his favorite girl had married to Edger, so he did a lot of things to take revenge Knew.

The story was in a mysterious and horrible atmosphere .Sometimes it rained heavily, sometimes it winds loudly .All this made this novel so attractive.

I thought a lot after reading a lot after reading the novel. Heathcliff loved Cathrine so much he even wanted to be with her after they were all died. Actually Cathrine loved him not less than him, but she was supercilious, selfish, and ignorant. All of this made her choose anther life that seemed to be happy but painful. I really want to say that if you like a person don’t person pay much attention on his or her other thing but the person he or she .For example, appearance ,money, or something that can be changed quickly. We should treat the person sincerely. We can live a happy life as we expect. I believe that if everyone does this，the world that we live will become much more beautiful and more meaningful.
