Wuthering Heights is one of the most “perverse” love stories ever written. It blends feelings of love, hate and self-hatred. It confuses rebellion with conformity. It mixes up egotistic (or self-interested) and selfless (or “disinterested) motives.
For this essay, explore one or two of these paradoxes in its main characters, Cathy and Heathcliff. How and why are their passions so contrary, irrational, obdurate-so “perverse”? Just what are they rebelling against, if anything? Again, remember to approach your essay with an eye to examples that you analyse in the light of your reading.
