This story wasn't how I imagined it. It is a dark novel, about the cycle of violence and aggression: Heathcliff eventually becomes like the man he hates, by being brought up with beatings and anger he in turn unleashes it on everyone else.
It tells of how love can become a catalyst for hatred.
So many of the characters are utterly unlikable! Cathy is selfish and foolish and obstinate; Heathcliff is brutal and vengeful and psychotic; Hindley is spiteful and venomous and a drunkard.
