last year, to commemorate the bicentenary of emily bronte, i did a thing over on my blog called A MONTH WITH HEATHCLIFF.

because 201 years is even more impressive than 200 (and because this was a lot of work), this year i will repost the project here, one day at a time, celebrating my favorite novel and my baby steps into image-manipulation. happy july!!

**********************************

to commemorate the bicentenary of emily brontë, let’s take a moment to address the great puzzle at the heart of wuthering heights:

WHAT THE HECK WAS HEATHCLIFF UP TO FOR THOSE THREE YEARS? AND HOW DID HE GET SO RICH?

college courses have been structured around the question, scholarly tomes have been devoted to exploring the matter, novelists have offered their fanciful suggestions.

they’re all wrong.

to find out what really happened to heathcliff during his three years away from the dubya aitch, watch this space, where, for the entire month of july, i will be posting a scene from those missing years, putting to rest the great mystery of where he went, what he did, and why he came back so inclined to hang puppies.

**********************************
JULY 31



but sometimes heathcliff wanted to relive the good old days, going so far as to steal a fish from the local fishmonger, even as he brandished enough money to buy all the fish in the ocean.

finally, after three years, fed up with the emptiness of his life, with enough money to not only buy all the fish in the ocean but also probably enough to impress a woman who’d never been more than twenty yards from home, heathcliff returned to wuthering heights to claim his one true love.

and hell followed with him.
