Daphne du Maurier
Since the huge success of her early novel Rebecca, Daphne du Maurier has rarely been out of the best-seller lists. The other novels in the same romantic tradition - Jamaica Inn, My Cousin Rachel, French-man's Creek, The House on the Strand - do almost as well. WILFRED DE'ATH takes a critical look at this remarkable literary phenomenon and talks to Daphne du Maurier herself and to RONALD BRYDEN. MONICA DICKENS, HILARY SPURLING , and COLIN WILSON.
