Compare and contrast two different accounts of the fire in Jane Eyre and Wide Sargasso Sea.
WIDE SARGASSO SEA
Wide Sargasso Sea is the story of Antoinette Cosway, a Creole heiress who grew up in the West Indies on a decaying plantation.
Wide Sargasso Sea follows her voyage into the dark, both from her point of view and Rochester's.
The critical adulation that followed, she said, 'has come too late.' Jean Rhys died a few years later, but with Wide Sargasso Sea she left behind a great legacy, a work of strange, scary loveliness.
In this Reader's Guide, Carl Plasa provides a comprehensive survey and analysis of the most stimulating critical responses to Wide Sargasso Sea.
Chapter Two explores Wide Sargasso Sea 's dialogue with Jane Eyre and the theoretical questions it has raised.
'Wide Sargasso Sea' is my third Jean Rhys novel.
I read 'After Leaving Mr Mackenzie, ' and 'Good Morning, Midnight' a few years ago, and I would rate both of those novels as '5 star books.' So I came to 'Wide Sargasso Sea' with really high expectations, and while I did enjoy the book, at the same time, I don't think it has quite the calibre of the other Rhys novels I've read.
'Wide Sargasso Sea' as a novel on its own merits is an enjoyable story.

WAG: Jean Rhys\'s Wide Sargasso Sea
T he path that led Jean Rhys to write the masterly Wide Sargasso Sea after decades of literary silence is unlikely, to put it mildly, and it deserves a novel in itself.
Born in Roseau, Dominica, in 1894 to a Welsh doctor and Creole woman, Rhys (whose real name was Ella Gwendolen Rees Williams) moved to England to study at the Perse School in Cambridge at the age of sixteen.
Rhys’s work consistently shows strong craftsmanship and poetic style, but Wide Sargasso Sea is her best effort.
That the reader of Wide Sargasso Sea would never guess its author’s own dire difficulties in the face of its supreme authorial control is certainly a testament to Rhys’s writing prowess.
Jean Rhys (1894-1979) was born in Roseau, Dominica, and traveled as a teenager to study in England.
Her novels and stories began appearing in the 1920s, but she slipped out of the public eye until her Wide Sargasso Sea was published in 1966.
