Born into the oppressive colonialist society of 1930s Jamaica white Creole heiress Antoinette Cosway meets a young Englishman who is drawn to her innocent beauty and sensuality. After their marriage however disturbing rumours begin to circulate which poison her husband against her. Caught between his demands and her own precarious sense of belonging Antoinette is inexorably driven towards madness and her husband into the arms of another novel's heroine. This classic study of betrayal a seminal work of postcolonial literature is Jean Rhys' brief beautiful masterpiece. Jean Rhys (1894-1979) was born in Dominica. Coming to England aged 16 she drifted into various jobs before moving to Paris where she began writing and was 'discovered' by Ford Madox Ford. Her novels often portraying women as underdogs out to exploit their sexualities were ahead of their time and only modestly successful. From 1939 (when "Good Morning Midnight" was written) onwards she lived reclusively and was largely forgotten when she made a sensational comeback with her account of Jane Eyre's Bertha Rochester "Wide Sargasso Sea" in 1966.

"She took one of the works of genius of the nineteenth century and turned it inside-out to create one of the works of genius of the twentieth century". (Michele Roberts "The Times")."
