Is it fair to compare two sisters’ writing? Perhaps not, but… Emily’s is the most daring & avant-garde writing between Charlotte & Emily. While Charlotte dabs into the gothic atmosphere, Emily dives completely in. While Jane Eyre develops a morally grey male character, WH gives us an odious morally black/ walking red flag MMC. Is Heathcliff the hero or the villain of this story? The Reader can’t decide.

Wow. This is a dark story! I’d say “dark/ gothic romance” if I thought this was a romance. It is not a romance, nor is it romantic. Guessing ppl
who say it is a romance, only watched movies but didn’t read source material. Perhaps the first morally black protagonist? Is there passion in this book? Yes. But its theme is revenge. Cruelty. Abuse. Love? Very little.
