Love and Betrayal Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights is considered to be one of the greatest novels written in the English language. Due to Heathcliff and Catherine's love relationship, Wuthering Heights is considered a romantic novel. Their powerful presence permeates throughout the novel, as well as their complex personalities. Their climatic feelings towards each other and often selfish behavior often exaggerates or possibly encapsulates certain universal psychological truths about humans. The role of love and betrayal in Wuthering Heights effects Heathcliff and Catherine's relationship by eventually leading to their demise.
Throughout Wuthering Heights, Heathcliff's personality can be defined as dark, menacing, and brooding. He is a dangerous character, with rapidly changing moods, capable of hatred, and incapable, it seems, of any kind of forgiveness or compromise.
