Ooh yes!

One thing also about #DaphneDuMaurier's Rebecca is how well the prose flows from one scene to the next. It's masterly done.

It starts as a dream, then goes to her linking the dream to her past, then we are further in the past with her job with an older woman. But it isn't initially explained what her job is and what the situation is.

But it all flows along perfectly, introducing people and ideas in a casual way, sometimes without warning.

It's a very enjoyable read.

It's written in first person, which is often a style that is very readable and engaging, and allows for sudden conceptual leaps.

Me like.

“Happiness is a clear horizon – nothing to worry about on your plate, only things that are creative and not destructive. I think hatred is wasted energy, and it’s all non-productive.”

‘The Birds’, is a 1963 American natural horror-thriller film produced and directed by Alfred Hitchcock. Loosely based on the 1952 story of the same title by Daphne du Maurier, it focuses on a series of sudden and unexplained violent bird attacks on the people of Bodega Bay, California, over the course of a few days.

The film stars Tippi Hedren in her screen debut, Rod Taylor, Jessica Tandy, Suzanne Pleshette and Veronica Cartwright. The screenplay is by Evan Hunter, who was told by Hitchcock to develop new characters and a more elaborate plot while keeping du Maurier's title and concept of unexplained bird attacks.

In 2016, The Birds was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the United States Library of Congress, and selected for preservation in its National Film Registry

Visually stunning, but the soul of Rebecca lives in the book. The film enchants, but the novel haunts. Read first—then watch.
