Wide Sargasso Sea
by
Jean Rhys’s late, literary masterpiece Wide Sargasso 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.
