Join us as we discuss the book REBECCA by Daphne Du Maurier. This will be a hybrid meeting. You may come in person (masks optional) or attend via Zoom
Rebecca is a 1938 Gothic novel written by English author, Daphne du Maurier. The novel depicts a young woman who impetuously marries a wealthy widower, before discovering that both he and his household are haunted by the memory of his late first wife, the title character.
A bestseller which has never gone out of print, Rebecca sold 2.8 million copies between its publication in 1938 and 1965. It has been adapted numerous times for stage and screen, including a 1939 play by du Maurier herself, the film Rebecca (1940), directed by Alfred Hitchcock, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture, and the 2020 remake directed by Ben Wheatley for Netflix.
