Final Post for the Semester

This week I read further on in my book. Thought it s the last week of blogs for this quarter I have not quite finished yet. This week I found out that Catherine had had a bay shortly before she died. This came as a great shock to me because I knew nothing of it until the baby was being swaddled. I was uncomfortable by this revelation because it seemed awkward and out of place. I don’t understand how a woman of such fragility as she was could have had a baby especially since I read nothing of an excruciating childbirth. Furthermore, I just can’t get over the fact that I missed all the signs of her being pregnant in the previous chapters of the book, which I sifted through to find the birth of a baby. This discovery consumed my mind during this reading and I thought little of her growing up. However, the daughter of Edgar, christened Catherine after her mother, grew up and upon the death of her aunt meet her cousin, Linton as he is commonly referred too. Weirdly enough they seem to fall in love after a few brief meetings. He is also the son of Heathcliff, but a complete opposite in that he is extremely milquetoast in all his actions and a big weather wimp. There is a correspondence between the new Catherine and Linton which I have a hunch is really from Heathcliff and its kind of nasty and perverse but I thin that he is falling in love with Catherine a second time! I will have this book finished by the end of the week.
