The Review Geek recommends the 'Greatest Forbidden Love Stories in Literature' and one of them is that of
Heathcliff and Catherine
In Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff is an orphan who is brought into the Earnshaw family fold. Heathcliff forms a strong bond with Catherine, the family’s daughter. What Catherine and Heathcliff have is intense but futile because of the strict social rules of 18th-century England and Heathcliff’s background as an outsider.
Adding to the drama is Catherine’s brother Hindley, who treats Heathcliff poorly, always reminding him of the class differences. Caught between societal norms and her deep feelings for Heathcliff, Catherine ends up marrying Edgar Linton for financial and social reasons. Despite tying the knot with Edgar, Catherine’s heart remains loyal to her former love. (Rishabh Shandilya)
Just in case someone wants a reader's digest of the novel,
The Review Geek provides one as well.
