《呼啸山庄》的独创性、超前性也反映在作者的艺术构思和叙事手法上，这种构思和手法使作品有了超常的深度和力度。
《呼啸山庄》通过三十多年的时间跨度，叙述了恩肖和林敦两家两代人的感情纠葛这样一个错综复杂、惊心动魄的故事。如果按当时的传统手法来写，很可能会落入单线结构的窠臼，而且势必洋洋大观，才能交代清楚。艾米莉打破传统，率先采用了基本倒叙法，即小说的主体部分采用倒叙，只有开头的三章和结尾的四章是顺叙。一上来就让读者看到了这场爱情复仇风暴的基本格局，把呼啸山庄的那种荒凉、败落的环境和人际冷漠、紧张的气氛，呈现在读者的面前，使读者和洛克伍德一起产生了种种疑团。通过洛克伍德夜宿山庄的所见所闻和可怕的梦魇，山庄有了一种悲凉和神秘的色彩，更加增加了悬念，迫使读者非去寻根问底、弄个水落石出不可。
