book review

How to understand Wuthering Heights? Are the Romantics who enjoy Heathcliff's passion for perfection? Are the intolerable readers of Heathcliff realistic, utilitarian and objective realists? Or does each rereading give us a new chance to understand Heathcliff and give smart readers a chance to stretch their hands beyond their boundaries and touch the complex and painful core of love in another person's heart? Heathcliff is a bigoted man. He sacrificed everything for love when he fell in love with a person. He loved her by any means until he died. On the windy Moors in the north of England, in a period of closed primitive time and space, Heathcliff, a black and dirty little boy, fell in love with Catherine who brought him all happiness and pain. Wuthering Heights is "the ideal paradise for the world weary". In this beautiful and desolate closed world, Heathcliff appeared as an outsider - when he was 6 or 7 years old and was starving to death, he was brought back to Wuthering Heights by Mr. Earnshaw, the old owner of Wuthering Heights. It should be said that Heathcliff's childhood was unfortunate. He spent time on the line of hunger and death before coming to Wuthering Heights, and in the bullying and abuse of Hindley after coming to Wuthering Heights. It should be said that the situation before and after was equally difficult, but with Catherine, everything was different. Catherine is a crazy little girl, and her blood has an unstable factor. "She can make all of us lose patience more than 50 times in a day. She is always mischievous from the time she goes downstairs to the time she goes to bed, which makes us have no peace for a minute. She's always in high spirits, her tongue keeps moving - singing and laughing. Whoever doesn't follow her, she keeps pestering. What a wild and bad girl However, this wild and bad girl is really kind and beautiful. She is innocent. She doesn't know how to envy Heathcliff's favor like her older brother. She is just a playful little girl. She is very close to Heathcliff's temper in her childhood. Heathcliff is not coquettish after a difficult wandering life, and she won't be as small as Hindley In the busy villa, only the lonely Heathcliff valued little Catherine the most. Although everyone has different identities and backgrounds, the most important thing for the two children is that they have the same age. Hindley was educated by his eldest son. He was destined to bear the expectation of his parents that "iron is not steel". He was a member of the society. Old Earnshaw was old enough to think that little Catherine was "worse than her brother". Joseph was a kind of neurotic old farmer with religious spirit, and Nelly's was always an excellent servant who was orthodox and thought of his master. They represent rules and order for Katherine who wants to play, to be crazy and to make trouble. They represent a rational and non free world. Heathcliff represents another world, in which everything can happen (in fact, nothing will happen). They are full of freedom, adventure and infinite possibilities. These two children of old Earnshaw are not well educated Almost all of them established their own way of facing the world in their growth, so Hindley didn't know how to be humble and respectful, Catherine didn't know how to be polite and quiet, and Heathcliff brought a stubborn, intolerant and utilitarian attitude. That's why Hindley is always finding fault with Heathcliff, and Catherine says to old Earnshaw, "why can't you always be a good man, father?" Heathcliff would make full use of the love he got at home to deal with Hindley and take Hindley's beloved pony. Wuthering Heights is closed. Heathcliff believes in his love and Catherine's love. Is this extreme love? Is his love and Catherine's love essentially the same? When Heathcliff could only become a beggar, Catherine chose to leave, and was responsible for it. Everything in the small Wuthering Heights was so absolute.
