I disliked Wuthering Heights, also. It was so overdramatic and the male characters were often crying their eyes out. It did not seem realistic to me. I really liked Madame Bovary, but the excellent translation that I lucked into reading may deserve a lot of the credit. All translations are definitely not created equal.
