Discover Jean Rhys’s masterpiece, Wide Sargasso Sea, a gripping prequel to Jane Eyre. This award-winning novel, featured in BBC’s ‘100 Novels That Shaped Our World’, delves into the tragic story of Antoinette Cosway, the ‘madwoman in the attic’.

Rhys brilliantly reimagines Bertha Rochester’s past, offering a profound postcolonial perspective on identity, belonging, and the destructive nature of relationships. A must-read for fans of classic literature and compelling character studies. Explore this seminal work of literary genius at The Bookish Owl.
