Jean Rhys

Jean Rhys's late literary masterpiece, Wide Saragasso Sea, was inspired by Charlotte Bronte's Jane Eyre, and is set in the lush, beguiling landscape of Jamaica in the 1830s. Born into an oppressive colonialist society, Creole heiress Antoinette Cosway meets a young Englishman who is drawn to her innocent sensuality and beauty. After their marriage disturbing rumors begin to circulate, poisoning her husband against her. Caught between his demands and her own precarious sense of belonging, Antoinetter is driven towards madness.
