The Two Esates in Wuthering Heights

Other characters in the novel also carry similarities to the Wuthering Heights but none as much as Heathcliff. Heathcliff embodies Wuthering Heights both emotionally and physically. "I beheld his black eyes withdraw so suspiciously under their brows" (3), this description of Heathcliff's eyes contrasts perfectly with the windows of Wuthering Heights, "The narrow windows are deeply set in the wall" (4). Even in the most subtle way there is a strong connection between the character and the estate. Heathcliff much like the estate was forced to be resilient against the metaphorical storms imposed upon his life and within himself. Heathcliff was initially an orphan brought into Wuthering Heights by Hindley's father. "and swears he will reduce him to his right place" (22), It is obvious that Hindley grew an enormous amount of animosity towards Heathcliff and upon the passing of Hindley's father he was given the chance to project that anger onto Heathcliff by making him a slave; reduce him to his right place. Heathcliff was forced to work like an animal and was treated as such. Heathcliff was at the bottom of the class system now. Wuthering Heights was looked down upon by Thrushcross Grange and Heathcliff was looked down upon by Wuthering Heights. This developed much of his anger and manifested the characters driving force.
             Juxtaposed to Wuthering Heights, Thrushcross Grange is situated on low ground within a valley. It is constantly sun-lit and sheltered from the bad weather. There is a beautiful garden in the front and an abundance of flower pots. Everything is very well-kept and tamed. It is the complete opposite of Wuthering Heights. Thrushcross Grange is sophisticated, the estate is beautifully carpeted and has "a pure white ceiling bordered by gold" (48). Their class can be seen in the estates richness. Its inhabitants perfectly mirror the household amenities.
