John Self @john-self.bsky.social · 08/02/2026- Will the film of Wuthering Heights be faithful to the book? - No, I was hoping it might be good. 3428211

Tuneraider @tuneraider.bsky.social · 08/02/2026Besides the car chase and nightclub scenes, other than that it’s faithful, oh , except Heathcliff, she’s a blind gypsy , & ah and it’s set in Bosnia and it’s a musical 000
Captain Sidecar @captainsidecar.bsky.social · 09/02/2026The vast majority of Victorian literature is middle-class trauma porn. 020
Helen @seryndippyt.bsky.social · 08/02/2026I was almost sucked in by the trippy, stylistic craziness until the trailer ran with ‘the greatest love story ever’ and ugh. (Apparently there is something worse than spending hours with desperately unpleasant people and that’s someone breathlessly insisting that it’s so romantic). 040
Maria Aragon - Artist and Author @mariaaragon64.bsky.social · 09/02/2026It took me two tries to read it. Anyone who calls it a romance hasn't read it. It is a dark tale of obsession, led by two pretty unpleasant characters. 010
darkyn1138.bsky.social @darkyn1138.bsky.social · 09/02/2026I endured the book as one might cross a bleak and sucking moor, weary of the passage and ill at ease among its inhabitants. Yet for all its bitterness, the language possessed a sombre beauty, and it has seeped into my own manner of speech, altering it in ways that I have never wholly escaped. 000

Steven Lubliner @sslubliner.bsky.social · 08/02/2026"Family Guy" made me question my love of "Gatsby." I don't also need to question "Wuthering Heights." 010
Kris King 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🇪🇺🇺🇦💙 @kris-king.bsky.social · 08/02/2026I first read it a few years ago in a stint of "books I probably ought to have read by now" I was disappointed to discover the intriguing ghost story folk talked about to be the insubstantial, weak filling in a sandwich of tedious, kitchen sink drama even Coronation Street wouldn't bother with. 070
johnw60.bsky.social @johnw60.bsky.social · 08/02/2026With Starmer as Cathy and McSweeney as Heathcliff? Too emotional 000
Maria @otbnmalta.bsky.social · 08/02/2026I absolutely hated the book and found Heathcliff insufferable. I have no interest in seeing the movie. 1110

kikitotoro.bsky.social @kikitotoro.bsky.social · 08/02/2026So unimpressed by WH…..I remember trying to read it & just feeling so unbothered about the story……very much prefer Anne Brontë’s “Tenant of Wildfell Hall”, followed by CB’s “Jane Eyre”. 000
bookglutton.bsky.social @bookglutton.bsky.social · 08/02/2026I finally tracked down a copy of Minae Mizumura’s A True Novel, which is a retelling of WH in post WWII Japan, and all this talk about WH is helpful to fill in all the blanks that come with never having read WH. 020
Heidi Mastrogiovanni @heidifeminist.bsky.social · 09/02/2026You had me guffawing with this! And we at The Classics Slacker are in complete agreement. I'm one-third of the triumvirate writing the series. I'd be happy to mail you our book. #WutheringHeightsMovie #wutheringheights 010

brentavision.bsky.social @brentavision.bsky.social · 08/02/2026As faithful as William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet directed by Bax Luhrman. 010
KateW @kateweb.bsky.social · 08/02/2026That sound is the ghost of Emily Brontë, gasping at your temerity. (I do think it's an almost impossible novel to dramatise well, even for people who like the book.) 070
The Evil-er Betty @ndrichter.bsky.social · 08/02/2026Thank you. I may have not been the avatar of taste and refinement as a high schooler, but I found the book itself to be a tedious slog between non-events. 0190
