Dear Isabella,
I am sure you have heard, but I have fallen ill recently. I am also sure you have heard that I am expecting a child. I get the feeling it will be a boy, the next heir to Thrushcross Grange, and Edgar seems to think the same. Speaking of Thrushcross Grange, how are you enjoying yourself at Wuthering Heights? I grew up over there, and I am sure you have encountered my brother and his son plenty. I honestly can say that I truly hope they are treating you the way you deserve to be treated. I am sure they are. As for your brother, he is taking wonderful care of me despite my condition. He is already being a wonderful father on top of being such a devoted husband. Speaking of husbands, how is your money going? Oh boy, silly me, I meant marriage. Heathcliff seemed quite devoted to your fortune family. My apologies for the mistakes I am making in this letter. It must be the pen. Regardless, the idea of marrying you always seemed to make Heathcliff… passionate. I am so glad things are working out between you two now that I am starting my family with Edgar. As I grow weaker, I just wanted to reach out to you in order to check in.
Best wishes,
Catherine Linton

I absolutely love how passive aggressive this is, because that’s my favorite characteristic of Catherine. It’s so creative to have the word crossed out, and overall, your blog captures Catherine’s views toward Isabella. Great job!

ahaha I loved the details of pettiness that come from this letter! It is very similar to Catherine’s personality throughout the book. Great job!!

Dang–the tone is so sardonic! At first, I thought Catherine’s letter was far too pleasant to be in her character until the petty passive aggressive mistakes started to take over the letter. Way to capture her snarkiness!
