There is no looking glass here and I don't know what I am like now...Now they have taken everything away. What am I doing in this place and who am I?'. If Antoinette Cosway, a spirited Creole heiress, could have foreseen the terrible future that awaited her, she would not have married the young Englishman. Initially drawn to her beauty and sensuality, he becomes increasingly frustrated by his inability to reach into her soul. He forces Antoinette to conform to his rigid Victorian ideals, unaware that in taking away her identity he is destroying a part of himself as well as pushing her towards madness. Set against the lush backdrop of 1830s Jamaica, Jean Rhys' powerful, haunting masterpiece was inspired by her fascination with the first Mrs Rochester, the mad wife in Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre.

一直都記得安托瓦涅特的那條紅色的裙子,像木棉花一樣盛開。在我看來,她是那個在後殖民時代裏夾縫生存的可憐女孩,不是Bertha,不是閣樓上的瘋女人,更不是同伴口中的白皮黑鬼。
評分相比《簡愛》,更喜歡這本。
評分我看過最沮喪的書之一。
