wuthering hights
The year is 1801. Lockwood, the narrator, has just arrived at his new home, Thrushcross Grange, an estate in the north of England. The estate's isolation pleases the narrator, who jokingly identifies himself as a misanthrope. Indeed, he claims to have managed to ruin a budding romance the previous summer through his detachment and unsociability. Lockwood makes an introductory visit to Heathcliff, the owner of Thrushcross Grange, at Heathcliff's house. The house stands on an elevation, where its sturdy stone architecture is buffeted by strong winds, earning its name, "Wuthering ('Weathering') Heights."

After finishing her story, Isabella leaves for London with her dog. In London, she gives birth to a baby, Linton, a rather sickly child. Twelve years later, Isabella will die. Heathcliff refuses Nelly's pleas to work as housekeeper at Wuthering Heights. He then tells her how he peered into Catherine's coffin while Edgar was being buried, seeing Catherine's face for a moment before having to close the lid for fear of the corpse disintegrating. He knocked out one side of the coffin and plans to be buried on Catherine's other side, so their dust can mingle. Edgar will not be able to tell them apart.
