What to expect
On a trip to the South of France, a shy young woman falls in love with Maxim de Winter, a handsome widower. Although his proposal comes as a surprise, she happily agrees to marry him. But as they arrive at her husband's home, Manderley, a change comes over Maxim, and the young bride is filled with dread. Friendless in the isolated mansion, she realises that she barely knows him. In every corner of every room is the phantom of his beautiful first wife, Rebecca, and the new Mrs de Winter walks in her shadow.
Not since Jane Eyre has a heroine faced such difficulty with the other woman. An international bestseller, Rebecca is the haunting story of a young girl consumed by love and the struggle to find her identity.

Well it's all a bit frightfully so. Yet extremely enjoyable with many twists and a sense of a time gone by

I was mesmerised by this psychological thriller. The narration was excellent, very clear enunciation.
I also loved the analysis at the end of the book, it made think beyond the story.Sandra 2026-02-16 -
