#5: The end....

For me the ending of the book offer me a confusion of feelings, that is because i did not dislike Heathcliff but on the other hand i wanted him to suffer and die and leave Catherine and Haerton alone and at peace. Heathcliff in my perspective is and interesting character because at the beginning of the book we are clearly told that he has been hardened even before meeting the Earnshaws. However, the rudeness and cold indifference toward him prove to make him even more thirst for vengeance and therefore punished Haerton and Catherine. By not allowing a proper education for Haerton and making Catherine marry Linton by forcing her. The plot overall is sad but at the end i am thrilled that finally Cathy and Haerton are able to leave Heathcliff claws. However, i am not pleased that Cathy and Haerton may marry because they are like cousins, and in my mind is taboo.
