The 2 main characters love each other and drive each other insane as a result (they are actually properly mental).
Almost everyone dies from rather vague illnesses.
There’s plenty of borderline incest and domestic violence.
Without a doubt it’s a far cry from your run of the mill romantic novel but the characters (particularly Heathcliff) are fantastic and really stick in your mind afterwards.
Verdict: I’ve poked this book 6 times, give it a go!
