    Spence portrayal of marriage and family in this novel in my opinion is seen as strong. I would characterize this portrait of marriage and family as being loyal. In the stories that Spence shares with us, with an exception to The Woman Who Ran Away, that the woman who are married are indeed very loyal to their husbands. In the city of T’an-ch’eng, marrying someone meant that you would be loyal to them and that the couple would be together until death. It was the woman’s…

    As the candle flickered in the corner of the room, the shadows danced across the stone wall, casting light upon my aged face. I had sat in darkness for days now, the war becoming worse, and so was my eyes.The silver rimmed cup in my hand trembled, as Parkinsons Disease had taken over my body, I never managed to remain still. As my hair reseeds and my eyes grow tired, I know that it is time for me to leave. My whole life was spent in Manderly and now that it is burnt down, and I have retired, I don’t know what to do. I am just biding my time, waiting for the moment that I will this estate. I only have my memories for company, memories of Sir, Mrs De Winter, Madame Rebecca, Robert and Mrs Danvers. A thousand words will not leave so deep an impression as the first glance, as they are often the truest. The memories of my first glances at the first and second Mrs De Winter now come back to me.…
