Wuthering Heights #6

One reason classic novels are so classic is because they are timeless. No matter how old they are people still read them because they are so good. I think that Emily Bronte's novel Wuthering Heights is timeless for many reasons. The main reason I think is because of its universal theme. The theme is about love and how hard it can be to handle. About its obstacles but it always works out. This novel is timeless simply because the theme is. Any age group in any time period can relate to this theme.

The main character Heathcliff is timeless pretty much for the same reason. His traits and actions that he take are relatable to many of the novel's readers. He gets heartbroken because of love and then he out to seek revenge. This happened often to people back then and people today as well.

After reading this novel we can learn what love can really be like. You can hit obstacles and not make it through them, or you can hit them and make it through. This can also make your relationship stronger. We also may learn that it is not always best to be revengeful. It might not turn out how you had planned.
