We see Brontë novels - especially Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights - used as catchphrases in the press. Here's an example of
an article regarding the instructions of some hair dye:
The instructions are a whole thing in and of themselves. [...]
I don’t understand why they’ve written “Wuthering Heights.” I mean, come on, people. Step 1) Combine the chemicals. 2) Apply to head and wait. 3) Rinse.So, do they really need to use Wuthering Heights there? Because it's not an especially long novel. Complicated it might be at first but then everything that's supposed to be clear fall into place in time.
We suggest they use War and Peace as a better example :P
Also the
Reporter-Times chooses Belfry as word of the day, illustrating it with a sentence from Jane Eyre.
Example sentence: “It was three o’clock; the church bell tolled as I passed under the belfry: the charm of the hour lay in its approaching dimness, in the low-gliding and pale-beaming sun.” (Charlotte Brontë, Jane Eyre)Categories: Wuthering_Heights, Jane_Eyre, Weirdo
