My Cousin Rachel

Roman Dafny Dyumor'e (1907–1989) 'Moya kuzina Reychel', po mneniyu mnogih kritikov, ne ustupaet proslavlennoy 'Rebekke', a v chem-to i prevoskhodit ee. Eto prekrasnyy obrazec razvitiya tradicii 'goticheskogo' i 'sensacionnogo' romana, osnovopolozhnikom kotorogo schitaetsya Uilki Kollinz: detektivnaya intriga sochetaetsya s neobychnoy lyubovnoy dramoy, razvorachivayushchayasya na fone liricheskih peyzazhey Kornuolla i zhivopisnyh kartin Italii v sorokovye gody XIX veka. S kazhdym povorotom syuzheta chitatel' vse bol'she teryaetsya v dogadkah, kto pered nim – zhertva nespravedlivyh podozreniy ili raschetlivaya intriganka i ubiyca; no k kakoy by versii on ni sklonyalsya, final ego oshelomit. Izdannyy v 1951 godu roman mgnovenno stal bestsellerom i vsego cherez god na ekrany vyshel odnoimennyy fil'm s Oliviey de Hevilend i molodym Richardom Bartonom; v 1983 godu po romanu byl snyat televizionnyy serial.
