Daphne
Daphne: A Novel | Justine Picardie
6 posts | 7 read | 9 to read
Daphne is a marvelous story of literary fascination and possession; of stolen manuscripts and forged signatures; of love lost, and love found; of the way into imaginary worlds, and the way out again. The book is written in three entwined parts, which follow Daphne du Maurier herself, the beautiful, tomboyish, passionate author of the enormously popular Gothic novel Rebecca; John Alexander Symington, eminent editor and curator of the Bronts' manuscripts, who by 1957 had been dismissed from the Bront Parsonage Museum in disgrace after being accused of stealing and forging Bront manuscripts and who became Daphne's correspondent; and a nameless modern researcher on the trail of Daphne, Rebecca, Alexander Symington, and the Bronts.

Day 19 #dontrememberbuyingthis #aprilbookshowers I DO remember buying the copy on the left a couple of months ago - I DON'T remember buying the copy on the right, but I did, and read it 5 years ago (and even rated it 4 stars, according to GR). Oops. Now the dilemma - which edition do I keep. I prefer the cover on the left, but oooh, ribbon bookmark on the right-hand one...!

RealLifeReading I kinda like the one on the right! 8y
rubyslippersreads I love the one on the right! 😊 8y
mcipher I vote right, too. 8y
Tanner @RealLifeReading @rubyslippersreads @mcipher Yes, the one on the right has a unique look (and ribbon bookmark) so I think that'll be the one I keep. 8y

Have any of y'all read this one? I've had it on my TBR shelf since 2011! Pulling it down today to add to my November reading stack. I thought it would be a good companion for the MMD Book club flight.

Songsofhome That would seem a good flight indeed. Damn you, MMD, for tripling my already considerable TBR pile! :) 8y
SusaninTX Hahaha! I've had the same thought about MMD since joining the forum. It's making "prioritizing my reading stack" a new skill. ? 8y

48th finished book of 2016.

MrBook I need to read this. It keeps popping up on my radar. Darn TBR pile! 8y
GidgetsTreasures75 My TBR pile is insane and then I go to the library and go crazy and find books I didn't even have on my list!!! 😂📚 8y

Book four of #24in48 and hour ten. Don't think I will quite hit 24 hours but I plough on regardless! Loving this book about Daphne DuMaurier's obsession with Branwell Brontë.
