Lightening connection.

Storms seem to be a constant throughout literature. Lightening is used in Frankenstein, Wuthering Heights, and Jane Eyre. In Frankenstein, lightening was the inspiration for the creation of the monster. After Victor watched a storm he became fascinated with the concept of lightening and life. Then in Wuthering Heights and in Jane Eyre lightening destroys trees after momentous decisions. In Jane Eyre (I know no one else knows what I'm talking about but I'm going to make the connection anyway) the night after Jane agrees to marry Mr. Rochester, lightening strikes and destroys a great tree. Then in Wuthering Heights, after Catherine decides to marry Edgar a storm hits. Lightening "spilt a tree off at the corner of the building: a huge bough fell across the roof" (83). I think that the destruction of trees and storms is connected with the destruction that will eventually come from all the decisions.
