Wutherinh Heights/Duality of Catherine
Emily Brontė's controversial novel Wuthering Heights is the tale of two very different families living in two different houses, living two extremely different lives. Catherine is the character that draws them together. The attempt to house two radically different natures within the same body is demonstrated in Catherine's two houses of residence, her attraction to Heathcliff and Linton, and in her contrasting behavior throughout the novel. Wuthering Heights is the home in which Catherine grew up. It is a formidable structure that "the architect had the foresight to build strong" because of both the psychological and physical storms it had to endure. Corners of the home were "guarded with large jutting stones." The house its self is not a pleasant place to be. "No descent person came near" because of the somewhat frightening nature of the house. The "infernal house" is "primitive (in) structure" and has "grotesque carvings" which led people to view the house as an eerie structure. The inhabitants of Wuthering Heights are not much more accepted by society either. Heathcliff and Catherine are wild, unrefined, and harsh. They play out of doors barefoot and Catherine is not well-mannered at all. Heathcliff is perfectly comfortable
