There's a lot of interesting experimentation in WH that made a lasting impact on The Novel. But there are some missteps in there too. Nelly's narration is implausible in places. Especially where Bronte is building atmosphere, and you're suddenly confronted with the realistion that this servant has been sat for the last fifteen minutes about Cathy and Hareton and "bees humming dreamily about among the bloom" and "great swells of long grass undulating in waves to the breeze". It's the original How I Met Your Mother in that regard.

There's also a widespread agreement that the pacing flags somewhere in the middle of the second Cathy's story. Lot of people get fed up and bored trying to keep track of who's whom, and I don't think that's all on the reader.

Thank you! This makes sense. Detailed first-person/third-person storyteller narration can be quite ridiculous at times. Apparently it didn't bug me in Wuthering Heights, but I understand the sentiment perfectly.

Also this is a good comment.
