When it comes to "fanatical possessiveness in love", what comes to mind?
A man binds you, controls you, hurts you in the name of love,
Accused of being called" by his name: "Because I love you so much!" ”
But Panda Jun wants to tell everyone that true love is by no means fanatical possession, and behind all kidnappings in the name of love is full of danger!
Recently I read this classic suspense novel "Floating Dreams",
After reading it, I firmly believe that the fanatical possessiveness in love is essentially blackmail in the name of love!
"Floating Dreams"
"Floating Dream" is the masterpiece of the famous British novelist Daphne Du mullier, and is the sister of the famous novel "Butterfly Dream".
"Floating Dreams" tells a creepy love story:
The male protagonist, Philippe, was adopted by his cousin from childhood, and the two were very close.
When he was 24 years old, his cousin moved to Italy to recuperate due to illness.
But what I didn't expect was that my cousin, who had never been close to a woman, arrived in Italy not long after the news came:
He fell in love with a woman named Rachel and quickly married!
In the letter sent by her cousin, Rachel is a kind, gentle and reasonable woman. Philip was also happy with his cousin's happiness.
However, after only one year of marriage, my cousin suddenly and mysteriously died!
In the last letter left by her cousin, Rachel seems to have suddenly turned into a cruel, crazy woman.
"I suspect she's trying to poison me."
"Rachel, the source of my pain."
……
Faced with the death of his cousin, Philip fell into a fog of doubt that could not be dispelled.
He believed his cousin's words and swore to hate Rachel,
But I didn't expect that after meeting, I would fall in love with her like crazy.
But he didn't know it at the time.
Rachel is not only a cousin of a human abyss...
When reading this creepy, extremely frightening, and cold back story, Panda Jun's nerves were extremely tense, and the atmosphere did not dare to breathe.
When he saw the ending, he was even more shocked: this is also too unexpected, Du mullier is too good at writing!
Worthy of being a writer sought after by the suspense master Hitchcock!
Being able to write such a classic shows that the author is not an ordinary person.
Daphne Du mullier was a British national writer,
Her works were borrowed even more than Shakespeare in the British Library!
What she is best at is to fuse suspense and love.
The BBC called her the "Queen of British Suspense", and the famous director Hitchcock put her novels on the screen three times.
"Butterfly Dream" (1940) won the 13th Academy Award for Best Picture.
Some professional scholars even said: "It is she who taught Hitchcock what suspense is!" ”
In addition, Du mulliers also influenced many art creators.
Famous singer Taylor Swift said that from her work she learned a wider range of gorgeous words for creation, and also inspired the theme of writing songs.
Emma Watson, who plays "Hermione" in Harry Potter, also called Du Murière's novels "creepy classics!" ”
"Floating Dream" is a masterpiece of Du mullier's peak period,
Although the fame is not as good as the sister article "Butterfly Dream", the famous martial arts novelist Jin Yong said:
Compared to "Butterfly Dream", he prefers "Floating Dream"!
This book brings the Du-style suspense of "love is terror" to the extreme,
With suspenseful brushwork and a devastating ending, one is convinced that perhaps horror is really one of the essences of love.
