Je človek sam po sebi hudoben ali mu je vse slabo le privzgojeno? Je zvestoba pogojena z ljubeznijo ali je ljubezen pogojena z zvestobo? In, najpomembnejše, je poletje namenjeno opojnemu počitku pod soncem ali ekstatičnemu norenju z vetrom?

Ne morem poudariti dovolj, kako zelo počasna im reflektivna je ta zgodba, kot jesenska megla, ki se vleče med rumenimi šelestečimi listi dreves. V resnici mi je bilo branje res težko. Čudovito, čudovito, čudovito, a težko (pa ne samo na račun Josephovega škotskega naglasa). Praktično me je spravilo v reading slump. Dokler nisem prišla do zadnjih 100 strani, ko knjige pozno v noč (I know, right) sploh nisem mogla odložiti in sem takoj za njo nujno morala prijeti v roke naslednjo. Da ne govorim o tem, koliko povedi in odstavkov sem enostavno morala podčrtati.

"The little souls were comforting each other with better thoughts that I could have hit on; no parson in the world ever pictured Heaven so beautifully as they did, in their innocent talk."

this is a haunting tale of grief, generational trauma, and revenge. every character is fraught with pain and anguish. we are forced as readers to watch this painful tale unfold, with nothing to do but lament for their sufferings

I've always been a sucker for this genre of british lit. Some are obviously better than others, as is Wuthering Heights. There are some great descriptions of the countryside.
