Heathcliff is a pro.

>> No.948670

This is only a Romance if you think Nietzsche is a Romantic philosopher.

If you do, carry on.

If you don't, expect a psychologically telling novelization about frustration with the limits of our bodies and our lives, but most importantly, about love.

>> No.948690

>>948670
>novel about frustration

this is relevant to my interests. this is basically what you're saying, yeah?

>> No.948700

>>948690
Heathcliff is frustrated. I'd call him Emo, but to do so would be a horrible disservice to his metaphysical problems with love and intimacy.

>> No.948743

a fantastic gothic romance with a fantastic male lead, and a great depiction of obsessive love. i love heathcliff. he's up there with mr. darcy and mr. rochester, only he's more tortured than they are. (if u can't tell, wuthering heights is one of my favorite books)
