Wide Sargasso Sea, a masterpiece of modern fiction, was Jean Rhys’s return to the literary center stage. 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.
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.
Jean Rhys (originally Ella Gwendolen Rees Williams) was a Caribbean novelist who wrote in the mid 20th century. Her first four novels were published during the 1920s and 1930s, but it was not until the publication of Wide Sargasso Sea in 1966 that she emerged as a significant literary figure. A "prequel" to Charlotte Brontë's Jane Eyre, Wide Sargasso Sea won a prestigious WH Smith Literary Award in 1967.
Rhys was born in Dominica (a formerly British island in the Caribbean) to a Welsh father and Scottish mother. She moved to England at the age of sixteen, where she worked unsuccessfully as a chorus girl. In the 1920s, she relocated to Europe, travelling as a Bohemian artist and taking up residence sporadically in Paris. During this period, Rhys lived in near poverty, while familiarising herself with modern art and literature, and acquiring the alcoholism that would persist throughout the rest of her life. Her experience of a patriarchal society and feelings of displacement during this period would form some of the most important themes in her work.

这本诞生在《简·爱》之后的书是前篇故事,讲述的是被幽禁在顶楼的疯女的故事。有家族的精神病史,前半生在印度过着寄人篱下的日子,继父的疼爱使她有了一笔丰厚的嫁妆,婚后的生活变成了灾难的开始。书中的罗切斯特不是个正人君子,妻子发疯他有不可推卸的责任。
評分I should have given a 5 but due to the horrible translation presented.... honestly I hate Jane Eyre for its both realistic and fantasy. But IT IS these features that also presented in this book attracts me. I read it about three years ago so I don't really...
評分 評分《茫茫藻海》(又译《藻海无边》)是比较有名的名著前传/续篇之一。小时候就见过这本书的概要,买它来读的冲动却源于几年前一则小新闻。 《盗墓笔记》的作者南派三叔在2013年春,忽然在微博承认出轨,骂自己“人渣”,称将要离婚。这是用杀敌一万自损三千的法子逼妻子离婚啊。...
