SugarScape takes a look at the 'top 10 love triangles in books' and lists
Wuthering Heights among them:
6. Linton, Catherine, and Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights
We can’t talk about literary love triangles and not mention Wuthering Heights. Longing and separation, check. Another key ingredient for a love triangle is jealousy, and there was never a more jealous, more intense, more broody guy—in literature or anywhere, really— than Heathcliff. (Jenny Han)
Flavorwire features the
British Library exhibition Out of this World: Science Fiction but not as you know it and pays special attention to the Brontës' juvenilia:
Did you realize that the Brontë sisters (and their brother, Branwell) wrote fantasy stories about a group of imaginary countries called the Glass Town Federation back when they were kids? Neither did we. Branwell and Charlotte invented the kingdom of Angria, while the younger two, Emily and Anne, created a world called Gondal. The resulting sagas, hand-written in incredibly tiny script, featured a mix of fictional and real-life characters, like the Duke of Wellington. (Caroline Stanley)
Singapore AsiaOne reviews very briefly
Jane Eyre 2011 and
The Campus has an article by a student on
Jane Eyre, the novel:
After reading Jane Eyre I found my vocabulary knowledge had really grown.
Every time I read a word I didn't know I found I had to look it up. It was really frustrating to have to stop between pages or sentences and look up one or two unknown words and then re-read the sentence to understand it. (Michelle Alvarez)
The novel is also the subject of posts on
The 36th Lock and
Tantos Livros Tão Pouco Tempo (in Portuguese). Cary Fukunaga's adaptation is reviewed by
Reel Voice,
Random Thoughts and
In Medias Res.
Stubbs Family History has a post on North Lees Hall, one of the possible models for Thornfield Hall.
