Jean Rhys masterfully breathes life into this enigmatic character, Antoinette Cosway, framing her descent into madness with lush, oppressive atmospheres of 1930s Jamaica. This novel isn't just a narrative; it's an emotional journey, revealing the other side of Charlotte Brontë's classic through the eyes of the woman who became the 'madwoman in the attic.'
