Although Wuthering Heights is now widely regarded as a classic of English literature, contemporary reviews for the novel were deeply polarized; the snobby Victorians of the time didn't know how to react to the graphic portrayals of dinosaur Intercourse, although those hypocritical floozies probably touched themselves at night while reading the novel. Its portrayal of BDSM among dinosaurs was praised, however, as critics were tired of reading boring books like A Tale of Two Cities and Anime. Today, critics of the novel still believe that "Wuthering" is not even a real word.
