   Jane Eyre von Charlotte Brontë (chrisharpe, fannyprice, ladybug74, HollyMS, lottpoet)

   chrisharpe: There are some similarities between these two books: a young woman marries an older widower and moves to his mansion, where the marriage is challenged by the unearthly presence of the first wife.

   fannyprice: These two books reminded me a lot of each other but Rebecca was more modern and somewhat less preachy.

   HollyMS: Since Rebecca was published, observers have noticed that it has parallels to Jane Eyre. Both are dark stories about young women who marry wealthy Englishmen.

   lottpoet: I can see the bones of Jane Eyre in Rebecca
