Description
Antoinette Cosway's life is marked by beauty and betrayal. Born into a society that denies her true identity, she marries a man who seems to love her, but whose demands slowly consume her.
As Antoinette struggles to find her place in the world, the lines between reality and madness begin to blur. This powerful story of colonialism, love, and loss is a seminal work of postcolonial literature that explores the complexities of identity and belonging.
Edited with an introduction and notes by Angela Smith, this edition of Jean Rhys's masterpiece offers a nuanced understanding of a novel that has been hailed as one of the greatest works of 20th-century literature.
