Rebecca (Audio Cassette) (Abridged)

I had to read this book back in the late 1980's/early 90's as required for Honors English in Highschool.. but even though I was required to read the book... I LOVED IT! I recommend it to people who enjoy books such as The Scarlet Letter, The Great Gatsby, etc.

The new Mrs. De Winter is made to feel worthless and can not meet up to the expectations of those around her who idolized Rebecca, the first wife, now deceased... She is young, insecure... but as the truth behind the first marriage unwinds you truly love and hate certain characters in the book!

I have re-read this book on occasion throughout the years, and the sequel. And I enjoy it more every time I read it... wondering does Max still love his dead wife... and the truth is sooo shocking!!
This book is so well written... and you can't help but to really feel for the characters.. each and every one..
