Excerpt from Critiques
There is enough to stimulate but not satisfy the imagination. We can picture the pleased expression on her face in solitude when anticipating her sisters' home-coming, the smile with which she greeted them, the especial look she reserved for Anne when they found themselves alone. On the reverse side we can picture the despair in her eyes when one after another came the harsh reviews of Wuthering Heights. But still we lack the actual collision of soul and sense with the outer world to make the vision real.
