Il y a vingt ans disparaissait une grande dame de la littérature britannique du XXe siècle ainsi que « la plus Sarthoise des femmes de lettres anglaises », pour reprendre l’expression du Maine Découvertes de mars/avril 2003. En effet, c’est à Coudrecieux, dans l’Est de la Sarthe, que naquit en 1720 Mathurin Busson, l’ancêtre dont Daphné du Maurier descendrait en droite ligne cinq générations plus tard. Et c’est ce même ancêtre que la romancière mettrait en scène avec sa famille dans Les Souffleurs de verre (1963), après plusieurs petits séjours en Sarthe, Indre-et-Loire et Loir-et-Cher, dans le but de découvrir des données généalogiques et historiques utiles à l’écriture de cette œuvre. À sa disparition, Daphné du Maurier laissait une œuvre abondante, écrite en l’espace de quatre décennies. Comme le rappelle la bibliographie donnée en fin d’exposition, avaient ainsi vu le jour dix-sept romans, une cinquantaine de nouvelles, trois pièces de théâtre, trois ouvrages biographiques familiaux, trois recueils biographiques portant sur des figures littéraires ou philosophiques marquantes, une autobiographie et divers essais.

  • Book Club Discussion Guide
    Book Club Discussion Guide Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier ______________________________________________________________ About the Author Daphne du Maurier, who was born in 1907, was the second daughter of the famous actor and theatre manager-producer, Sir Gerald du Maurier, and granddaughter of George du Maurier, the much-loved Punch artist who also created the character of Svengali in the novel Trilby. After being educated at home with her sisters, and then in Paris, she began writing short stories and articles in 1928, and in 1931 her first novel, The Loving Spirit, was published. Two others followed. Her reputation was established with her frank biography of her father, Gerald: A Portrait, and her Cornish novel, Jamaica Inn. When Rebecca came out in 1938 she suddenly found herself to her great surprise, one of the most popular authors of the day. The book went into thirty-nine English impressions in the next twenty years and has been translated into more than twenty languages. There were fourteen other novels, nearly all bestsellers. These include Frenchman's Creek (1941), Hungry Hill (1943), My Cousin Rachel (1951), Mary Anne (1954), The Scapegoat (1957), The Glass-Blowers (1963), The Flight of the Falcon (1965) and The House on the Strand (1969). Besides her novels she published a number of volumes of short stories, Come Wind, Come Weather (1941), Kiss Me Again, Stranger (1952), The Breaking Point (1959), Not After Midnight (1971), Don't Look Now and Other Stories (1971), The Rendezvous and Other Stories (1980) and two plays— The Years Between (1945) and September Tide (1948). She also wrote an account of her relations in the last century, The du Mauriers, and a biography of Branwell Brontë, as well as Vanishing Cornwall, an eloquent elegy on the past of a country she loved so much.

It was returned to the Rashleighs in when she moved to Kilmarth, the dower house of the Menabilly estate and her final home.

While contemporary writers were dealing critically with such subjects as the war, alienation, religion, poverty, Marxism, psychology and art, and experimenting with new techniques such as the stream of consciousness, du Maurier produced 'old-fashioned' novels with straightforward narratives that appealed to a popular audience's love of fantasy, adventure, sexuality and mystery.

Ambrogio 3 Book Review: Daphne du Maurier’s The House on the Strand The House on the Strand, a novel Daphne du Maurier, author Victor Gollancz, 1969 Kobo Edition: Little, Brown Book Group, 2012 Daphne du Maurier is probably best known for her gothic and haunting Rebecca (1938), a novel which has remained in print for decades and been adapted multiple times for film and stage. Many of du Maurier’s other novels, such as Jamaica Inn (1936), Frenchman’s Creek (1941), My Cousin Rachel (1951), and The Scapegoat (1957) have also received film or stage adaptations. The House on the Strand, first published in 1969, is somewhat less well known among du Maurier’s works, but might be of interest to SideTrekked readers, since it displays not only du Maurier’s notable grasp on character and suspenseful pacing, but also an interesting (if fairly light on the science) foray into science fiction. The novel follows our narrator, Dick, who is spending the summer in Cornwall, at a home belonging to his friend Magnus.
