WUTHERING HEIGHTS The book itself Wuthering Heights is a novel that often describe with overwrought adjectives; "passionate", "savages", "tormented", "wild", "raw", "uncanny", "terrible", and refers to the book's "violence", "misery", "thwarted longing", and "immerse power and strength", within the book's own cultural context, these highly changed terms are certainly justified. However the book is memorable for its depictionof an intense, doormed love affair, and yet it preoccupies itself not at all with the subject - sex. The major characters are often describe as "cruel" or " savages", yet there is very little violence in the boo.

The book is more to a hunting psychological deception of a powerful and ill fated passion that defies all order and breaks all barriers and yet readers who expect to find an erotic thriller will be sorely dissapointed.
