Catherine, I hope you take time to read this letter. I know I am by no means a perfect guy, I have recognize my flaws, I know I have ISSUES.

When Catherine I returns from Thrushcross Grange, she is unrecognizable to Heathcliff because she has evolved into a more complete version of herself that he cannot accept. Cathy I tries to embrace Heathcliff in a hug and, as William Blake would say, momentarily touch souls, but Heathcliff adopts a “black”, “cross” expression, because the Catherine I that has returned is not the Catherine I that he wanted back (Brontë 42). Heathcliff’s “shame and

First published in 1847, Wuthering Heights was not met with immediate praise. Its depictions of violent characters and harsh realities were uncomfortable to a Victorian audience obsessed with outward appearances and societal orderliness.
