Wuthering Heights is traditionally seen as being about the timeless romance between Heathcliff and Catherine. Bradshaw takes issue with the conventional view, arguing that this in this novel the characters are driven by forces and passions they don't understand, and that Bronte's dark, violent world is much more complex than most critics allow.

Wuthering Heights is traditionally seen as being about the timeless romance between Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw. That is the version made famous by Hollywood in the greatest film version of the novel, released in 1939 and starring Laurence Olivier.

Bradshaw takes issue with the conventional view of Wuthering Heights, arguing that this is a novel in which the characters are driven by forces and passions they don't understand and that Emily Bronte's dark, violent world is much more complex than most critics allow.
