Wuthering Heights is a highly imaginative work of passion and hate. The author was interested in mysticism and enjoyed her solitude outdoors. This novel contains those elements and is now considered a classic of English literature. It was published under the pseudonym Ellis Bell. The story is full of high creativity and very imaginative, narrating revenge and revolving around the main character, Heathcliff. Wuthering Heights is his farmhouse. Heathcliff is a young orphan brought to Wuthering Heights by Earnshaw 30 years ago. Earnshaw loved him so much that he neglected his own children. After Earnshaw's death, his elder son Hindley becomes the new master of Wuthering Heights and allows Heathcliff to stay there only as a servant. Catherine is in love with Heathcliff but doesn't show it due to her social status. The story is very interesting and ends with sights of the ghosts of Catherine and Heathcliff.
