La siguiente critica esta en Español e Ingles/ The following review is in Spanish and English

Emily Bronte nos regaló una de las mayores historias de amor de la literatura y quizá, la mejor representación del Romanticismo rompiendo por completo con los cánones de la Inglaterra victoriana.

Sus personajes están tan enlazados que el camino de uno afecta también al del otro. Somos testigos de una enfermedad basada en circunstancias y sentimientos que crean un efecto mariposa en donde todos terminaran también infectados.

En los oscuros páramos de Yorkshire, Catherine y Heathcliff nos enseñan el papel del destino, la obsesión, la pasión y la venganza.Oscura y retorcida,es una historia de amor no convencional. "Me mataría ahora mismo —respondió— si estuviese segura de que con ello conseguiría matarlo a él también"

Completely breaking with the canons of Victorian England, Emily Bronte gave us one of the greatest love stories in literature and perhaps the best representation of Romanticism.

Their characters are so linked that the path of one affects the path of the other. We witness a disease based on circumstances and feelings that create a butterfly effect where everyone will also end up infected.

On the dark Yorkshire moors, Catherine and Heathcliff teach us the role of fate, obsession, passion, and revenge. Dark and twisted, it is an unconventional love story. "I would kill myself right now," she replied, "if I were sure that with it I would be able to kill him too"

This story is not a live story. Heathcliff is a jerk. His son is pathetic. Catherine doesn't know who she wants. Her daughter, equally annoying. Also, cousins marrying each other? 1840s was a boring time to be alive

Savršena atmosfera, likovi i osećaj da sam zaista tamo svaki put kad otvorim knjigu.
Mnogo mi je žao što sam odlagala čitanje ove knjige.

Really good and really readable, at a lot of points it felt like you were there gossiping which was fun. Obviously all the characters are unlikeable but I think in a good way.
