The nonfiction debut from beloved international sensation and #1 New York Times bestselling author Tatiana de Rosnay: her bestselling biography of novelist Daphne du Maurier. “It's impressive how Tatiana was able to recreate the personality of my mother, including her sense of humor. It is very well written and very moving. I’m sure my mother would have loved this book.” — Tessa Montgomery d’Alamein, daughter of Daphné du Maurier, as told to Pauline Sommelet in Point de Vue As a bilingual bestselling novelist with a mixed Franco-British bloodline and a host of eminent forebears, Tatiana de Rosnay is the perfect candidate to write a biography of Daphne du Maurier. As an eleven-year-old de Rosnay read and reread Rebecca, becoming a lifelong devotee of Du Maurier’s fiction. Now de Rosnay pays homage to the writer who influenced her so deeply, following Du Maurier from a shy seven-year-old, a rebellious sixteen-year-old, a twenty-something newlywed, and finally a cantankerous old lady. With a rhythm and intimacy to its prose characteristic of all de Rosnay’s works, Manderley Forever is a vividly compelling portrait and celebration of an intriguing, hugely popular and (at the time) critically underrated writer. Manderley Forever is a nominee for the 2018 Edgar Award for best critical/biographical work.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Queen Elizabeth was born in Regent’s Park. The area is now home to luxury stores and fashionable restaurants, embassies, and five-star hotels. It is not easy to find Cumberland Terrace, the house where Daphne du Maurier was born in 1907. #2 The little girl, Daphne, has to pass under the arch and climb the steps to the house. She likes to look at the maids’ uniforms, and she enjoys visiting the nursery on the top floor of the house. #3 Daphne’s sister, Angela, was far ahead of her in terms of social skills and manners. Daphne struggled with her capital letters, and would often daydream about living alone in a red house with a sword. #4 One day, Nanny leaves. The little girl asks her mother why. It’s because Jeanne is no longer a little baby, Angela is nearly nine, and Daphne will be six. They’re big girls now, and they don’t need Nanny anymore.

Tatiana de Rosnay met ses pas dans ceux de la célèbre romancière anglaise Daphné du Maurier en en faisant un véritable personnage de roman. Loin d'avoir la vie lisse d'une mère de famille, qu'elle adorait pourtant, elle fut une femme secrète dont l'oeuvre reflétait les tourments. Des côtes escarpées de Cornouailles aux vieux manoirs chargés d'histoire qu'elle aimait tant, on partage ses moments de tristesse, ses coups de coeur et ses amours secrètes.

«Il ritratto di una donna ribelle, libera, completa». Marine Tilly, Le Point Il 13 maggio 1907 a Mayfair, in una imponente dimora dal frontespizio neoclassico, nasce Daphne du Maurier, figlia di Gerald e Muriel Beaumont. Sua madre, Muriel, è un’ex attrice di teatro, che ha esordito sulle scene nel 1898, anno in cui era quasi un’adolescente. Nel 1902 ha incontrato Gerald; recitavano nella stessa commedia, scritta da quello che sarà poi un amico di famiglia: James Matthew Barrie, detto zio Jim, l’autore di Peter Pan. Muriel Beaumont ama dire che ha smesso di calcare i palcoscenici quando, diventata una du Maurier, ha dovuto far fronte ai suoi doveri di moglie e di madre, ma, crescendo, Daphne capisce subito la ragione vera della sua scelta. Nella tribù dei du Maurier c’è posto per un solo attore, un solo istrione capace di brillare e fare il bello e il cattivo tempo: suo padre Gerald. Abile, creativo, affascinante sulle scene, Gerald du Maurier è da tempo oggetto di venerazione delle spettatrici che accorrono numerosissime alle sue rappresentazioni, e non tarda a esserlo anche di sua figlia Daphne, suscitando, tra le mura domestiche, una malcelata gelosia da parte di Muriel. Daphne attende con impazienza quei momenti privilegiati al primo piano di Cannon Hall, la casa al numero 14 di Cannon Place, in cui, accanto al focolare, di fronte a una tazza di tè, con una sigaretta tra le dita, Gerald le racconta l’infanzia di suo padre, George du Maurier, detto Kiki, pittore e romanziere che si era dedicato alla scrittura grazie all’amico Henry James. La lettura dei romanzi di Kiki, innanzi tutto Peter Ibbetson, l’opera in cui rievoca il fascino della Parigi del 1840, apre a Daphne il mondo incantato della letteratura. Leggere Dickens, Thackeray, Scott, Stevenson, Wilde le appare un sortilegio, una potente via di fuga, tanto affascinante quanto l’Isola Che Non C’è di Peter Pan, l’eroe che è entrato nel suo cuore una sera d’estate della sua infanzia, in cui Daddy si è affacciato nella nursery assieme a zio Jim, un ometto dallo sguardo intenso, baffoni neri e fronte alta. Vestita come un impertinente ragazzino, con calzoncini corti, calzettoni di lana, grosse scarpe sgraziate, anche Daphne ha la sua Isola Che Non C’è, il mondo racchiuso in un quaderno lungo e nero, su cui scrive nel silenzio della sua stanza al secondo piano. Un quaderno in cui si annuncia già il suo luminoso destino di scrittrice... Con una prosa impeccabile, Tatiana de Rosnay ci restituisce il romanzo della vita di una delle più complesse e tormentate figure di donna del Novecento, la scrittrice inglese Daphne du Maurier, autrice di romanzi come Rebecca, la prima moglie, Gli uccelli, Jamaica Inn. «Questo libro si legge come un romanzo. Ma niente è inventato. È tutto vero. È il romanzo di una vita». Tatiana de Rosnay «La biografia di Daphne du Maurier alza il sipario sull'esistenza aristocratica e dorata, ma anche oscura e torbida dell'autrice britannica». Roberto Bertinetti, il Messaggero «Tatiana de Rosnay ci propone ci propone una biografia più avvincente di un romanzo». Grazia Giordani, L'Arena

'Vannacht droomde ik dat ik weer naar Manderley ging.' De openingszin van de roman Rebecca van Daphne du Maurier heeft generaties lezers doen wegdromen. Van Du Mauriers romans gingen miljoenen exemplaren over de toonbank, haar werk werd in veertig landen vertaald en Jamaica Inn en The Birds werden succesvol verfilmd door Alfred Hitchcock. Wat is er bekend over Daphne du Maurier, over de hartstochtelijke ambities van deze schrijfster, haar nauwe band met Frankrijk en de verwevenheid van haar werk en leven? Manderley voor altijd leest als een meeslepende roman en biedt een fascinerend portret van een vrouw wier leven net zo mysterieus was als het werk dat zij schreef, vol psychologische spanning.

'This book will inspire you to get up, light a candle, and experience your own Night Self' Financial Times 'A paean to the life-enhancing power of the dark' Sharon Blackie THE NIGHT SELF IS: CREATIVE. CURIOUS. VULNERABLE. ENCHANTED. COURAGEOUS. In the winter of 2020, Annabel Abbs experienced a series of bereavements. As she grieved, she kept busy by day, but at night sleep eluded her. And yet her sleeplessness led to a profound and unexpected discovery: her Night Self. As the night transformed into a place of creativity and liberation, Annabel found she wasn't alone. From the radical fifteenth-century philosopher Laura Cereta and subversive artist Louise Bourgeois, to Virginia Woolf and the activist Peace Pilgrim, women have long found sanctuary, inspiration and courage in darkness. Drawing on the latest science, which shows we are more imaginative, open-minded and reflective at night, Annabel set out to discover the potential of her Night Self. Sleepless follows her journey, from midnight hikes to starlit swims, from Singapore, the brightest city on Earth, to the darkest corner of the Arctic Circle, and finally to that most elusive of places - sleep. A moving, revelatory voyage into the dark, Sleepless invites us to feel less anxious about our sleep, and to embrace the possibilities of the night.

The definitive biography of Daphne Du Maurier, one of history's greatest psychological thriller novelists Rebecca, published in 1938, brought its author instant international acclaim, capturing the popular imagination with its haunting atmosphere of suspense and mystery. Du Maurier was immediately established as the queen of the psychological thriller. But the more fame this and her other books encouraged, the more reclusive Daphne du Maurier became. Margaret Forster's award-winning biography could hardly be more worthy of its subject. Drawing on private letters and papers, and with the unflinching co-operation of Daphne du Maurier's family, Margaret Forster explores the secret drama of her life - the stifling relationship with her father, actor-manager Gerald du Maurier; her troubled marriage to war hero and royal aide, 'Boy' Browning; her wartime love affair; her passion for Cornwall and her deep friendships with the last of her father's actress loves, Gertrude Lawrence, and with an aristocratic American woman. Most significant of all, Margaret Forster ingeniously strips away the relaxed and charming facade to lay bare the true workings of a complex and emotional character whose passionate and often violent stories mirrored her own fantasy life more than anyone could ever have imagined.
