Chapter 15 Review
I am on chapter 15 of Wuthering Heights and so far I have liked the book. I like the way that the author explains the history of each character and how they fit into the story. The plot of the book is well thought out as well and has many twists that keep readers interested. One of the themes that I have picked up on is revenge. They all plot revenge on each other, especially Heathcliff. In the last few chapters, Heathcliff has run off and wed Isabella, just so he could get revenge on her brother, Edgar. This is unethical in many ways, especially because Isabella really liked Heathcliff relationship wise and he's is only looking for revenge. The author also used the literary device foil many times. For example, the description of Wuthering Heights vs Thrushcross Grange makes Wuthering Heights seem mystic and strange. This is the complete opposite of how Thrushcross Grange is described which is cheery and sweet.
