I was lucky to be gifted this book from someone really special for me, from someone who is more myself than I am.
Even though you might struggle a bit with figuring out the characters, you should definitely read the book!
Wuthering Heights is 
Emily Brontë's singular work of fiction, Victorian society would not accept the fact that Wuthering Heights was a creation of female therefore the book was first published under the pseudonym Ellis Bell.
Wuthering Heights concerns the interactions of two families, the Earnshaws and Lintons, over three generations. The novel is set in the desolate moors of Yorkshire and covers the years from 1771 to 1803. The Earnshaws and Lintons are in harmony with their environment, but their lives are disrupted by an outsider and catalyst of change, the orphan Heathcliff. Heathcliff is, first of all, an emblem of the social problems of a nation entering the age of industrial expansion and urban growth. Although Brontë sets the action of the novel entirely within the locale familiar to her, she reminds the reader continually of the contrast between that world and the larger world outside.
Some of the main themes in the book are:
1. Destructive love (although Catherine and Heatcliff separate they are two identical parts of one whole; Catherine says "I'm Heatcliff" whereas Heatcliff believes that Catherine is "his soul"; in pursuit for their impossible love, they ruin the lives of the people around them)
2. Revenge
3. Social mobility
