If we evaluate the quality of books, based on the intensity of these emotions, just for that reason, Wuthering Heights (Wuthering Heights) would immediately fit like the masterpiece that is considered worldwide.For some reason, the title "Wuthering Heights," as well as others such as "Gone with the Wind" or "Breakfast at Tiffany's" always, since I was very young, blew my mind, even before I knew what it was. Today I know that it is because he has had a lot of fame and success in both literature and cinema, however, before reading the book he knew very little about him. The only thing I knew, or the only thing that sounded to me thanks to tiny comments that some people had released to the air, was that it seemed to be a romance story.When they told me that I would have to read it in a reduced version for the University, I did not feel more enthusiastic. I mentioned it to a couple of adults, and they all seemed to place "Wuthering Heights" in the same way that I did: as a classic love story, yes, but with nothing to remember that distinguished it from any romance and very corny.Only a very dear friend read Wuthering Heights before me, and tried to enthuse me. Even she also wrote a review, very well written by the way. But even then there was no case.Only when I read the book, even superficially because it was a grossly reduced version, I was able to realize its genius. And it is that you do not need more background, or greater literary knowledge, or more analysis to immediately fall victim to this novel.There is something I would like to make very clear: Wuthering Heights is far, far from being a conventional love story.The reduced version I liked so much, and to be reduced it produced so many sensations in my interior, that I decided to read the complete and original version, or I could never feel that I could comment on it properly. And it was worth it.Wuthering Heights is a book that can be enjoyed absolutely from any angle: superficially, it is entertaining, captivating, mysterious, brutal. And if you start to dig a little, its structure is so, but so perfect that it overwhelms me even try to explain it; For the first time I understand how there are so many books that are devoted to analyzing this work.
