I did finely force myself to look up the plot of "Wuthering Heights", tonight, just now, but I don't get the plot.
It was long, complicated, but seemed like the stereotypical "love almost, and love lost" plot.
Heathcliff and Catherine (my guess) not understanding the plot, are supposed to end up lovers, but someone dies in all that and a spirit is all that is left to chase?
It's been made into a movie several times. The one with Laurence Olivier and Merle Oberon was pretty famous.
Maybe it would make sense to watch one of these.

I don't know how closely the movies stick to the book, but it would give a sense of the story.
