In the novel "Wuthering Heights" which character of the novel dies in the end?

  1. Catherine Earnshaw

  2. Nelly Dean

  3. Heathcliff

  4. Edgar Linton

The correct answer is: Heathcliff

In "Wuthering Heights," Heathcliff is the only main character who dies in the end. Although Catherine Earnshaw, Edgar Linton, and Nelly Dean are important characters, they do not die before the end of the novel. Nelly Dean serves as the narrator and lives until the end of the story. Catherine Earnshaw dies earlier in the novel due to illness, and Edgar Linton dies before the final events of the story take place. Heathcliff is the sole character who passes away in the concluding chapters of the novel.
