Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier🕯️Obsession, hauntings & Maxim being a huge red flag

Let's do a deep dive into Rebecca, Daphne Du Maurier's gothic masterpiece and why it stands the test of time as a truly haunting novel. I break down the plot, with spoilers for those who need them, and dive into my experience of re-reading the book and why I think it is a brilliant gothic ghost story (even though there are no ACTUAL ghosts). We look at melding of gothic romance and murder mystery, the structure of the novel, the lore of Rebecca herself, doomed relationships, why Mrs Danvers is so unsettling, and who the true villain of the story is. Plus a look at some of the adaptations of the book, good and bad. So bad...
