I share this because sometimes a jolt of pure rage is quite invigorating and it will cleanse out your lymphatic vessels … anyway here is a slopmonger selling a "translation" of WUTHERING HEIGHTS into "modern English" to make it "actually readable."

Wuthering Heights: In Modern English (The Actually Readable Classics) by Emily Brontë (Author), Avery Frost (Translator) Format: Kindle Edition 4.0 4.0 out of 5 stars (1,151) 3.9 on Goodreads 2,301,922 ratings See all formats and editions WUTHERING HEIGHTS IN MODERN ENGLISH Yes, it’s that book. The one everyone says you should read. The original toxic love story that spawned entire genres of dark romance. Here’s the thing: Wuthering Heights is unhinged, devastating, and has been absolutely wrecking readers for 175 years. It’s a masterpiece. The Victorian prose, though? That’s the part that makes it feel like homework. This edition fixes that. Same gothic moors. Same obsessive passion. Same “wait, did that just happen?” moments. Just in language that doesn’t require you to stop and decode every other sentence. What’s different: The prose. That’s it. No scenes cut. No plot watered down. No study guide summary. Every chapter, every character, every devastating moment, just written so you can actually experience why this book has been breaking hearts since 1847. You get the full story without “hitherto,” “countenance,” and sentences that take three reads to figure out. You get Brontë’s genius without the barrier. Still Wuthering Heights. Just readable.
