Working as a lady's companion, the orphanedof Rebecca learns her place. Life begins to look very bleak until, on a trip to the South of France, she meets Maxim de Winter, a handsome widower whose sudden proposal of marriage takes her by surprise. Whisked from glamorous Monte Carlo to his brooding estate, Manderley, on the Cornish Coast, the new Mrs de Winter finds Max a changed man. And the memory of his dead wife Rebecca is forever kept alive by the forbidding Mrs Danvers . . .

Not since Jane Eyre has a faced such difficulty with the Other Woman. An international bestseller that has never gone out of print, Rebecca is the haunting story of a young girl consumed by love and the struggle to find her identity.

作者简介

达芙妮·杜穆里埃（1907-89）出生于伦敦，是著名演员经理人杰拉尔德·杜穆里埃爵士的女儿和作家兼艺术家乔治·杜穆里埃的孙女。1931年，她的第一部小说《爱的精神》出版。她的父亲的传记和其他三部小说随后出版，但正是小说《蝴蝶梦》使她进入了文学的平流层，使她成为当时受欢迎的作家之一。1932年，杜穆里埃与弗雷德里克·布朗宁少校结婚，并与他生了三个孩子。

杜穆里埃的许多畅销小说和短篇小说被改编成获奖电影，包括阿尔弗雷德·希区柯克的《鸟》和尼古拉斯·罗格的《现在别看》。1969年，杜穆里埃被授予DBE勋章。她一生中大部分时间生活在康沃尔郡，她的许多书都是以康沃尔郡为背景。

Daphne du Maurier (1907-89) was born in London, the daughter of the famous actor-manager Sir Gerald du Maurier and granddaughter of George du Maurier, the author and artist. 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 a DBE. She lived most of her life in Cornwall, the setting for many of her books.
