Fanart Friday: Wuthering Heights

If you've followed this blog for awhile you'll know that this book, along with Jane Austen's work, is not particular high on my list of favourite reads. The characters...actually, I'm not even going to get started on the problems with the characters, I'd rather not sully these amazing art pieces with the inevitable rant that'd follow! In spite of all the things that I hated about this book, I was always drawn to the image of two lovers searching for one another across the wild moors. It's incredibly visual, and romantic (if they weren't the characters they are) and gothic and translates well onto paper, as the artists below clearly show. As before this collection come from a wonderful group of artists I found on DeviantArt and I cannot urge you enough to check out these artist's collections on that website. A perfect way to spend a few hours.

**Are there any books you'd like to see featured on Fanart Friday? Or perhaps an artist you know who draws inspiration from books? Let me know in the comments and I'll dedicate a post to them!

  1. This book is a classic. I found it very interesting and an easy read. I can't decide which character I dislike the most! They are awfull people who ruins each other lives, but hey it was entertaining! :0) I liked how the book had a story about the author, and extras on the book to make it easier to understand.
