... and it's my all-time favorite book. Which came about because my other favorite actor, Robert Newton, was in Hitchcock's 1939 movie version (which bore little resemblance to the book). It was the forerunner to Rebecca, but I think it's even better.
Hmm, what role could DW have played in a faithful film version? Ah! What about Reverend Davey? (With Newton as Uncle Joss!)
