Wuthering Heights By Emily Bronte
Heathcliff, the main character in the story, has no heart. He is evil to the core - so savage that his lone purpose is to ruin others. He has destroyed his wife, and after he has watched the death of his son occur with no care nor concern, I feel sympathetic towards this character. Bronte describes the young boy, Heathcliff, as dark, almost as if he came from the devil. He hates Hindley, and although the feeling is mutual, Heathcliff does cruel deeds. In one incident Mr Earnshaw has given both Hindley and Heathcliff a colt. When Heathcliff's colt goes lame, he threatens to blackmail Hindley if he does not trade with him. At a young age, he begins to plot revenge against Hindley. "I'm trying to settle how he will pay Hindley back. He says that he doesn't care how long he waits, if he can only do it at last. he hope he will not die before Hindley does. And in his adult years, we find him teaching Hindley's son, Hareton, to swear desiring that the boy become just as
When Catherine is trying to blame this mistake on Heathcliff, he defends himself by saying, I have not broken your heart, you have broken it; and in breaking it, you have broken mine. After the completion of this speech, Heathcliff proceeds to just as he had discussed. This time, to a man that married his lover, Edgar Linton. Is Mr Heathcliff a man? Isabella writes, if so, is he mad? And if not, is he a devil? Heathcliff's company quickly destroys Isabella. Yet, at the end of his life, Heathcliff realizes the futility of his life, as it has been spent on that one task. Heathcliff's un-fulfilling love for Catherine. Yet Catherine, because of the social level, Hareton has put Heathcliff on, chooses to marry Edgar Linton instead. He gets levers and mattocks to demolish the two houses of Edgar's and Hindley's, and train himself to be capable of working like Hercules, he has lost the faculty of enjoying their destruction, and he is too idle to destroy for nothing. And that is the slavering, shivering thing you preferred me too. Heathcliff has no love for his wife, he himself even says so. "You are mine!" Heathcliff intends to achieve revenge on Hareton by treating the boy the same way Hindley had treated him, gives him no formal education, and degrades him to the position of a ploughboy. In realizing this, Heathcliff wills himself to die. Earnshaw also makes the reader for sorry for him.
