Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights (1847).
Brontë REJECTS violent, abusive Heathcliff and so does Cathy. The right couple are young Cathy and Hareton.
Blame film adaptations for the TOXIC ‘romantic’ reading.

Paul Fussell, The Great War and Modern Memory (1975)
WWI was an appallingly traumatic event and Fussell did a great job of approaching its literature from a fresh angle, right when the Vietnam War was ending

J.R.R. Tolkien The Lord of the Rings (1952-55)
Tolkien always thought of TLOTR as a single novel, not a trilogy. Peter Jackson did a great job of adapting it for the screen, but please read Tolkien!

Stephen Crane, The Red Badge of Courage (1895)
Not all would agree this is an anti-war novel but it’s an extremely candid narrative about fear and cowardice in combat, which anticipated the literature of WWI

Galsworthy and Arnold Bennett were swept under the rug by Virginia Woolf as pedestrian novelists, but both are worth reading. Give them a try!
