Emily Bronte’s 1847 novel Wuthering Heights is an incredibly complex narrative. It’s crammed with stories-within-stories, generations of characters (many of whom have the same name!) and flashbacks to minute plot details about who married whom.
It can be a little difficult to keep all the details straight (the Victorians seemed to have longer attention spans than we do), but the most important thing to keep in mind is the fierce and passionate love between Catherine and Heathcliff. Although social conventions prevent them from marrying, their obsession with one another continues even beyond the grave.
