About this product

Product Information

FROM THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF REBECCA 'How long he fought with them in the darkness he could not tell, but at last the beating of the wings about him lessened and then withdrew . . . ' A classic of alienation and horror, 'The Birds' was immortalised by Hitchcock in his celebrated film. The five other chilling stories in this collection echo a sense of dislocation and mock man's sense of dominance over the natural world. The mountain paradise of 'Monte Verita' promises immortality, but at a terrible price; a neglected wife haunts her husband in the form of an apple tree; a professional photographer steps out from behind the camera and into his subject's life; a date with a cinema usherette leads to a walk in the cemetery; and a jealous father finds a remedy when three's a crowd . . .

    ''The Bird and other Stories''

    i've read two novels by this amazing author, and ''The Birds'' was another wonderful creation by Daphne Du Maurier! Her style captivates you! her narrative captivates you! and it takes you to the heart of the events where there is a sense of isolation, fear and even melancholy as in the story ''The Apple Tree''! i will definately keep reading more and more by this writer because it is a real joy!!

    Imaginative stories.

    Beautifully written stories, from an author with a great imagination. It's a nicely produced paperback too.

    Read it!

    The best collection of short stories I've ever read. 'The Birds' is so different from the Hitchcock version and the other tales are equally disturbing. A must for all Du Maurier fans and all who enjoy an unerving story.
