I really cannot feel for these characters. I just couldn’t believe how Heathcliff treated Isabella. When he planned to get Cathy married to Linton, that is the point when I gave up.

Therefore one needs to look at it from that angle. I have read the Bronte sisters but more than the stories I like the settings that they are written in.. ! All of us are entitled to our likes and dislikes. I disliked Arundhati Roy's " God of Small things" - people are very surprised when I say so. But I like your honesty. Few people write honestly these days . We are so careful about being " politically correct". BTW I would like you to visit my fiction blog. Take a look at some of the stories there and let me know what you think.Meerahttp://meeratales.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2740454017537270091.post-37169227830524669972011-09-10T20:43:23.658+05:302011-09-10T20:43:23.658+05:30You know everyone doesnt have a happy ending in th...You know everyone doesnt have a happy ending in their love story.....I totally love the book!<br />I cried too much on several parts.<br />The best thing about it was the fact that even death couldnt part them.....if they were not united in their life,they were together after it.<br />Maybe you didnt get to the part where cathy dies,oh it was so beautiful and full of pain!
