7/2/2023 0 Comments My cousin rachel book review![]() Their house in Cornwall doesn’t have any females in the household. ![]() He brought up Philip to be his successor and his heir, and Philip grew up wanting to always be like Ambrose. ![]() Ashley Ambrose is a rich man that owns many lands, but he doesn’t believe in marriage and thinks that women are just a nuisance. He was adopted by his cousin Ashley Ambrose when he was three years old. The narrator, Philip Ambrose, is a young man about to turn 25 years old. The book reminds me a lot of Henry James’s ‘The Turn of the Screw’. So if you’re the kind of person that has to be satisfied with a proper ending and hate open-ending stories, you might not like it. ‘My Cousin Rachel’ is the kind of story that will make the reader guesses until the very end. She could take her readers into her own fictional worlds, in such effective dialogues and scenes that the stories look deceivingly simple. ![]() It’s not just the suspense and the twisted ending, but also about how each story crafted in such details. Next, I read ‘The Birds’ and I knew that I would always love whatever this author wrote. The first short story of Daphne du Maurier that I read was ‘Don’t Look Now’ which hooked me right away. ![]() She has done for me at last, Rachel my torment. ![]()
