　　Many critics of Eamily Bronte s novel Wuthering Heights see its second part as a counterpoint that comments on,if it does not reverse, the first part, where a romantic reading receives more confirmation. Seeing 5 the two parts as a whole is encouraged by the novel s sophisticated structure, revealed in its complex use of narrators and time shifts. Granted that the presence of these elements need not argue an authorial awareness of novelistic construction comparable to that of Henry 10 James, their presence does encourage attempts to unify the novel s heterogeneous parts. However, any interpretation that seeks to unify all of the novel s diverse elements is bound to be somewhat unconvincing. This is not because such an 15 interpretation necessarily stiffens into a thesis , but because Wuthering Heights has recalcitrant elements of undeniable power that, ultimately, resist inclusion in an all-encompassing 20 interpretation. In this respect, Wuthering Heightsshares a feature of Hamlet.
