She had a startling early career and was known for her extraordinary prose and haunting women characters. With Wide Sargasso Sea , her last and best-selling novel, she ingeniously brings into light one of fiction’s most fascinating characters: the madwoman in the attic from Charlotte Brontë’s Jane Eyre . This mesmerizing work introduces us to Antoinette Cosway, a sensual and protected young woman who is sold into marriage to the prideful Mr. Rochester. Rhys portrays Cosway amidst a society so driven by hatred, so skewed in its sexual relations, that it can literally drive a woman out of her mind.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n A new introduction by the award-winning Edwidge Danticat, author most recently of Claire of the Sea Light , expresses the enduring importance of this work. Drawing on her own Caribbean background, she illuminates the setting’s impact on Rhys and her astonishing work.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":54063213937003,"sku":"YSL10092","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/1674\/0203\/files\/615rUELLDZL._SY1500.jpg?v=1792051446","url":"https:\/\/www.booktavero.com\/products\/b0hdzqh17y","provider":"BookTavero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
