Daphne du Maurier
![du Maurier, {{circa|1930}}](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e3/Young_Daphne_du_Maurier.jpg)
Although du Maurier is classed as a romantic novelist, her stories have been described as "moody and resonant" with overtones of the paranormal. Her bestselling works were not at first taken seriously by critics, but they have since earned an enduring reputation for narrative craft. Many have been successfully adapted into films, including the novels ''Rebecca'', ''Frenchman's Creek'', ''My Cousin Rachel'' and ''Jamaica Inn'', and the short stories "The Birds" and "Don't Look Now". Du Maurier spent much of her life in Cornwall, where most of her works are set. As her fame increased, she became more reclusive. Provided by Wikipedia
