Wide Sargasso Sea
by Cicely Palser Havely
About
"Born and raised on the Caribbean island of Dominica, Jean Rhys used her native home as the setting for a novel derived from Charlotte Bronte?'s Jane Eyre. This program, filmed on location, explores the profound and complex effects of Dominica's landscape, history, and culture on the writing of Wide Sargasso Sea. Scholars, cultural historians, and Rhys' biographer, Carole Angier, discuss these influences on the book, as well as the notion of the historical novel as a hybrid literary creation."--Container.
