(4.21) | 3 / 1572 | A PBS Great American Read Top 100 Pick With these words, the reader is ushered into an isolated gray stone mansion on the windswept Cornish coast, as the second Mrs. Maxim de Winter recalls the chilling events that transpired as she began her new life as the young bride of a husband she barely knew. For in every corner of every room were phantoms of a time dead but not forgotten--a past devotedly preserved by the sinister housekeeper, Mrs. Danvers: a suite immaculate and untouched, clothing laid out and ready to be worn, but not by any of the great house's current occupants. With an eerie presentiment of evil tightening her heart, the second Mrs. de Winter walked in the shadow of her mysterious predecessor, determined to uncover the darkest secrets and shattering truths about Maxim's first wife--the late and hauntingly beautiful Rebecca. This special edition of Rebecca includes excerpts from Daphne du Maurier's The Rebecca Notebook and Other Memories, an essay on the real Manderley, du Maurier's original epilogue to the book, and more.… (més) |
▾Recomanacions de LibraryThing  ▾Recomanacions dels membres 35 6 Jane Eyre de Charlotte Brontë (chrisharpe, fannyprice, ladybug74, HollyMS, lottpoet)chrisharpe: There are some similarities between these two books: a young woman marries an older widower and moves to his mansion, where the marriage is challenged by the unearthly presence of the first wife. fannyprice: These two books reminded me a lot of each other but Rebecca was more modern and somewhat less preachy. HollyMS: Since Rebecca was published, observers have noticed that it has parallels to Jane Eyre. Both are dark stories about young women who marry wealthy Englishmen. lottpoet: I can see the bones of Jane Eyre in Rebecca 21 2 My Cousin Rachel de Daphne Du Maurier (HollyMS, EllieH)HollyMS: Daphne Du Maurier's My Cousin Rachel has a similar theme as Rebecca. 13 0 Jamaica Inn de Daphne Du Maurier (katie4098) 14 3 El Conte número tretze de Diane Setterfield (citygirl) 9 0 The Scapegoat de Daphne Du Maurier (lois1) 9 0 La dona de blanc de Wilkie Collins (starfishian) 9 0 El Secret de Lady Audley de Mary Elizabeth Braddon (kiwiflowa, lahochstetler) 7 0 Lorna Doone de R.

Informació del coneixement compartit en anglès. Modifica-la per localitzar-la a la teva llengua. 'You see,' she said, snapping the top, and walking down the stairs, 'you are so very different from Rebecca.'  We came to Manderley in early May, arriving, so Maxim said, with the first swallows and the bluebells. It would be the best moment, before the full flush of summer, and in the valley the azaleas would be prodigal of scent and the blood-red rhododendrons in bloom.  Forget it, Mrs. de Winter, forget it, as he has done, thank heaven, and the rest of us. We none of us want to bring back the past, Maxim least of all. And it's up to you, you know, to lead us away from it. Not to take us back there again.  If only there could be an invention that bottled up a memory, like scent. And it never faded, and it never got stale. And then, when one wanted it, the bottle could be uncorked, and it would be like living the moment all over again.  | |
