Reading Wuthering Heights (2010)

Yes, the novel was written in the 19th century.


And yes, I am only now reading it.


I shouldn't go into details on the novel. It's an age old love story which doesn't have a happy ending. It's about torment and longing, about how two people are meant to be together but the pressures of society and not following your own heart finally tear apart a friendship and a love so deep that it should have survived.

Is emotion that deep? Sometimes I think it is and sometimes I think it isn't. Does all that life revolve around is how much money you make? Is all that matters about a relationship what is the economic factor?

I don't know. Lately my husband hasn't been spending enough time with me. He goes off to do all sorts of other things but not what I want to do. A movie - Well, he's doing me a favour. What about an outing? A date? Nah, not really. Egad, sometimes I think if he's reading this, he should get a move on!! Romance in a relationship should never die - don't you think?

Sorry, coming back to Wuthering Heights!! Heathcliff, Cathy..... sad sad sad..... I loved the book though!!
