*nodnod* I started thinking about this because it floored me that people could not get Wuthering Heights, and feel like it didn't speak to them. I respect that other people interpret fiction differently, but on an emotional level I was like ... "this is the five-hundred-foot-blazing-letters version of a declaration of love. What part of it is hard to read?" XD; But, you know, I listened and tried to figure out where I was seeing one thing and they were seeing another, and why. And that took me through a lot of internal "okay, why do I think this is loving?" which took me straight back into my own references and life. Then I compared notes with my friends who like Wuthering Heights, and read what other fans had to say with interest, and sort of went "oh. I think ... maybe I can see what's happening here." But as the person who posted above you showed, there's stuff I wasn't taking into account. The fact that in my circle, it's the people who have grown up with abuse who relate to the love story in Wuthering Heights doesn't mean they're the only ones who like it. And the fact that my liking it has to do with my history doesn't mean that only people with similar histories can. TL;DR, I shared what I had and I learned something.
