Amongst the mayhem that is navigating an international move during a global pandemic sit a pile of books. Books that I promised I wouldn’t and yet somehow definitely did amass…

A lot came to me through Little Free Libraries; all of those, and many more, will be redistributed locally before I depart. These vintage du Mauriers however, I purchased from the wonderful Joyland Books, with intent.

I would be sad that, as hardbacks, I just don’t have the weight allowance to take them with me, except that now I get to share them with you!

What better way to celebrate Daphne du Maurier on her birthday than through the witchcraft and wildness of the beautiful, bleak west country in her Gothic novels Jamaica Inn and My Cousin Rachel?

The following details are for the giveaway hosted on Instagram.
