Vivid, dreamlike...the strength of de Rosnay's biography is that it makes me want to visit (or revisit) her subject's books.
Daily Mail

Ms. de Rosnay has written a biography that does justice to its heroine.
Wall Street Journal

immersive, as thrilling as any of du Maurier's plots...brilliant
Irish Independent

Clever and highly original...insightful and endearing
The Lady

It's impressive how Tatiana was able to recreate the personality of my mother, including her sense of humour. It is very well written and very moving. I'm sure my mother would have loved this book.
Tessa Montgomery d’Alamein, daughter of Daphne du Maurier

A fascinating, in-depth portrait...Through de Rosnay's novel-like narrative, exhaustive research and unbridled imagination, du Maurier's spirit comes alive on the page.
