Since then, I have read the book (many times!) and seen the earlier film.<br /><br />My visit to the Bronte Museum and the surrounding moors was a truly amazing experience.<br />I simply MUST return there one day :)Ygrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00300519608303898969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177935673290025151.post-7762500499928897922012-06-26T20:49:48.987+01:002012-06-26T20:49:48.987+01:00But beyond the veil Emily Bronte smiles!

I chose Wuthering Heights because it has haunted me ever since I first saw the film :)Ygrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00300519608303898969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177935673290025151.post-24100374054626423802012-06-20T19:26:15.760+01:002012-06-20T19:26:15.760+01:00Indeed there is no higher praise than that - and I...Indeed there is no higher praise than that - and I thank you so much.<br />That walk is well worth the effort. The breathtaking views aside, it is a wonderful feeling to know that one is walking in the great Emily Bronte's footsteps.<br />I certainly intend to repeat it as soon as I have time :)Ygrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00300519608303898969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9177935673290025151.post-3946357302879097022012-06-20T19:02:52.934+01:002012-06-20T19:02:52.934+01:00This is just brilliant, so cerebral and fangirl-is...This is just brilliant, so cerebral and fangirl-ish at the same time, my favorite type of homage. You must write a similar piece about Tess of the Dúrbevilles, another equally haunting book.
