Frankenstein Wuthering Heights

The Novel Prose, Poetry, and drama are all forms of literature which allow authors to create imaginary characters and settings that create empathy and offer a meditation on the human condition. However, in terms of prose, the novel offers the ability to create, develop, and test deep, complex characters, pitting them against other characters and/or obstacles over an extended period of time. Thus, when reading a novel, character development and conflict are crucial.
