I completely agree with you Rod. I am also very lost....I got so confused that I had to stop reading for a while or else I would end up giving up! In the first pages I truly did not understand what was happening because at first it seemed like a meeting, then I understood as a conversation about some kind of military subject...anyways I am still in doubt about the narrator....what is the relationship of the narrator with Heatcliff????will I discover this soon???
I really did not like the way the characters were introduced because i was very confused mainly when he is talking about Mrs. Heathcliff...even after he discovers that the women he is describing is Heathcliff's daughter in-law the narrator continues to call her Mrs. Heathcliff. I think I will have to read a lot further still to get a hang of the story....or else i will be filled with doubts!!

I'm not sure I understand the military confusion, but think about what you learn about Heathcliff in this bit you read. As this books were often serialized in magazines the first few chapters were often set up. This was considered novel to use the ghost story to get you into the real story.
