Daphne du Maurier (1907-1989) was born in London, England. In 1931 her first novel, The Loving Spirit was published. A biography of her father and three other novels followed, but it was the novel Rebecca that launched her into the literary stratosphere and made her one of the most popular authors of her day. In 1932, du Maurier married Major Frederick Browning with whom she had three children.
Many of du Maurier's bestselling novels and short stories were adapted into award-winning films, including Alfred Hitchcock's The Birds and Nicolas Roeg's Don't Look Now. In 1969, du Maurier was awarded the Dame Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (DBE). She lived most of her life in Cornwall and died there which is the setting for many of her books.
A stunning hardback edition to mark the eightieth anniversary of one of the best-loved novels ever written. A bestselling gothic tale of love, murder and secrets.
'Last night I dreamt I went to Manderley again.'
Working as the paid companion to a rich, elderly lady, the orphaned heroine of Rebecca learns her place. Life is bleak until, on a trip to the South of France, she meets Maxim de Winter, a suave, handsome widower whose sudden proposal of marriage takes her by surprise. Whisked from the glamour of Monte Carlo to Manderley, Maxim's Cornish estate, the friendless young bride begins to realise that she barely knows her husband at all. The brooding figure is a pale shadow of the charming man she fell in love with. And in every corner of every room is the phantom of his beautiful first wife, Rebecca.
'Her masterpiece . . . Seldom has a dead woman exercised such power beyond the grave. Rebecca will live for ever, because du Maurier touches a fearful nerve, buried deep in the unconscious' Kate Saunders, The Times
