Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier
Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier
Finished: 3.14.10
Because I delayed in writing this review, it won't be very indepth because well, my mind isn't what it used to be. :)
This was a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful read! Although the opening of the book gave some hints as to the ending (there are several things I figured out towards the end), it was still an amazing read. The writing is stellar, and I am particularly fond of the writing. There is something in older works that current works are missing and a lot of it I believe has to do with richness of language and depth of description. Rebecca has both, as well as a very interesting plot line. It is a beautifully told story and an interesting window into the nature of relationships earlier in the 20th century.
Highly recommend!!
