Jezebel's Daughter by Wilkie Collins Pdf

At the end of the week we found the widow waiting to receive us. To describe her personally, she was a little lady, with a remarkably pretty figure, a clear pale complexion, a broad low forehead, and large, steady, brightly-intelligent gray eyes. Having married a man very much older than herself, she was still (after many years of wedded life) a notably attractive woman. But she never seemed to be conscious of her personal advantages, or vain of the very remarkable abilities which she did unquestionably possess. Under ordinary circumstances, she was a singularly gentle, unobtrusive creature. But let the occasion call for it, and the reserves of resolution in her showed themselves instantly. In all my experience I have never met such a firm woman, when she was once roused. She entered on her business with us, wasting no time in preliminary words. Her face showed plain signs, poor soul, of a wakeful and tearful night. But she claimed no indulgence on that account. When she spoke of her dead husband—excepting a slight unsteadiness in her voice—she controlled herself with a courage which was at once pitiable and admirable to see.

Jezebel's Daughter (Annotated) by Wilkie Collins Pdf

Filled with drama and unexpected plot twists, Collins' Jezebel's Daughter is based on a play, The Red Vial, which was produced in 1858. A story of intrigue, betrayal and misplaced trust, Jezebel's Daughter revolves around Mrs. Fontaine, a sinister widow who uses her dead husband's poisons and antidotes to control the futures of those around her. Who lives and who dies is anybody's guess. Filled with forensic details found in the best detective fiction, Jezebel's Daughter is remarkable in the way it handles the treatment of mental illness at the turn of the 20th Century

Jezebel's Daughter by Wilkie Collins Pdf

In the matter of Jezebel's Daughter, my recollections begin with the deaths of two foreign gentlemen, in two different countries, on the same day of the same year. They were both men of some importance in their way, and both strangers to each other. Mr. Ephraim Wagner, merchant (formerly of Frankfort-on-the-Main), died in London on the third day of September, 1828. Doctor Fontaine-famous in his time for discoveries in experimental chemistry-died at Wurzburg on the third day of September, 1828. Both the merchant and the doctor left widows. The merchant's widow (an Englishwoman) was childless. The doctor's widow (of a South German family) had a daughter to console her.
