In reply to facingthestory. Thank you! What stories by du Maurier did you like more than others? I'm planning to read My Cousin Rachel soon.

Brilliant analysis of these two books! I love Du Maurier’s work and am looking forward to reading The Birds. I had no idea that it’s so similar to another book though so it was really interesting to read your post.

I’m another one who had no idea there was a novel pre-dating du Maurier’s work. Thanks for sharing your research with us! 🙂

Oh, you’re not the only one! More than once I’ve posted a review, only to notice that I’ve spelt the author’s name incorrectly…
