Media Reviews
'The artful Sally Beauman plays extremely clever games with the staples of popular fiction, moving the pieces to make original and intriguing patterns . . . A hugely entertaining read, seriously romantic and with a terrific sense of atmosphere. Sally Beauman's control of her complex material is absolute' Kate Saunders, DAILY EXPRESS

'Compelling, absorbing, captivating, haunting- Sally Beauman's most ambitious and imaginative book so far' Elaine Showalter

'REBECCA'S TALE is bold and clever In this evocative and compulsive reworking of the balance of power between the sexes, Sally Beauman steers her creation into feminist territory and succeeds in overturning our loyalties.' Elizabeth Buchan, THE TIMES

'Once you start reading a Beauman book, you can't put it down, as Rebecca's Tale attests I felt satisfied that she had done an extraordinary thing; she convinced me that the Rebecca of these assorted memories really was the Rebecce that du Maurier's novel had omitted. And while both du Maurier & Beauman are great storytellers, Beauman really is the better prose writer' Linda Grant, GUARDIAN

'Passionate, vivid, elusive as compelling as the original. .a real achievement' Joanna Trollope.

'ingenious eminently satisfying.' INDEPENDENT ON SUNDAY

'intelligently constructed and full of surprises. Each voice rings true, especially that of Rebecca herself.' IRISH TIMES<
