‘“Oh, Cathy! Oh, my life! how can I bear it?” was the first sentence he uttered, in a tone that did not seek to disguise his despair.’ (Vol. II, C. 1)
No analysis...just tears. I. Am. In. Tears. |

| That's so beautiful, Sianann! Thanks for posting and for your thoughts on Lockwood. I agree! His name says it all: barring nature. I analyse names in books. Catherine = cat. I could go on with every character. I just want to say while I’m here that I’m in awe of your knowledge and passion for Wuthe... |

| Hmmm, regardless of multiple readings, I am always surprised at the level of domestic-situated violence. I find it interesting that Linton appears appalled by the idea of aggression (even Cathy’s temper in chapter 8 upsets him) but he has no qualms about organizing two of his employees to attack Hea... |

The earliest grave dates back to 1750. I thought it would be magical and atmospheric and happily it was indeed. It... |

| That's ironic because I've asked for no notifications but I get them regardless! I'm lolling around reading intros and essays. Kortie will be back tomorrow / Tuesday but we'll have to see if he's up for it right away. Regardless I'm pretty much good to go whenever you'd like. I'm a little busy tomo... |

| Sianann, what's a good timeline for you? We can't start quite yet because of Kraftiekortie. Perhaps I'll read a few forwards and post some questions to frame the Introduction of the book. I was going to post the family tree but I don't know if that gives away too much plot (do you agree, sianann?) ... |

| I love my son and myself and I have lots of time for us both! There’s a three-hour limit for everyone that I like very much. Yes, I guess I have a sliding scale of tolerance before I get drained/resentful. |

| Art has enriched my life in a way I never thought possible. However, financially I am mostly hovering slightly above or below the poverty line. It doesn’t sound like you’re financially motivated and that’s a realistic place to start from...this doesn’t mean you won’t ever make money. Funding from ar... |
