are you kidding me? Heathcliff is one of the best characters in the canon, let alone the whole of literature.

I just hate the stereotypical driven by revenge characters, they drive me to disgust more than passion or sympathy. Revenge isn't necessarily a turn off for me, I was even rooting for Dantès in The Count of Monte Cristo. It's just when the characters are "blinded" by something that I just get annoyed (hatred, love, revenge ...) , the characters just become bunch of craving animals driven by their instincts, not much to work on.

Tho nothing is worst than the novel Kane and Abel, where we have two revengeful protagonists ...

Went looking for a different book and couldn't find it, so I gave up and got this instead. Seems pretty interesting from what I've skimmed through so far.

I started reading this a few months ago but then I got the flu real bad and it was just too dense for someone whose eyes hurt to move. Just picked it up again, trying to re-remember the names and details, it isn't the optimum way to read a book. Enjoying it, but it's a bit heavy to be a page turner.
