Throughout Barnwell's life he remained in the shadows of his sisters' success. This relates to the character Heathcliff in Wuthering Heights because he is seen as the odd one out who doesn't quite "fit in" with the rest of the community. This leads Heathcliff to act maliciously towards the people who mistreated him.
