Heathcliff was this very violent, angry and hurt character I feel like the way he was treated as a child really ruined him, even when he was with Cathtrine he would hurt her.Spoiler
the characters troughout the book you really get to know them and their personality traits, there a some characters I really hoped that they would make it trough. this books touches on subjects such as child abuse, death and trauma. even though it was a quite a heavy book is was brilliantly written, I am definitely going to reread it and recommend it to other people because it leaves you thinking on certain subjects.Graphic: Child abuse, Death, Death of parent, Domestic abuse, Grief, Incest, Kidnapping, Physical abuse, and Violence

Say what you will about the villain but I was impressed by his perseverance and how he uses the very same systemic techniques that oppressed him to oppress others, effectively perpetuating the misery."Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don't have any kids yourself."
Sidenote: I'd generously say that I understood about 30% of what Joseph says in the book. Didn't make a difference, really.

They just bully and abuse each other, mostly for no reasonable reason!Spoiler
Reading this was just giving me anxiety and making me uncomfortable!Even though I didn't really enjoy reading this book, I still got through it quite quickly which says something about the writing and/or translation, so good job there!
