A review by saxmansnyder
Wide Sargasso Sea by Jean Rhys

3.0

Not bad, but not earth shattering either. It was an imaginative view into the backstory of Antoinette “Bertha” from “Jane Eyre”. Parts of it seemed more plausible than others. At times, it felt rushed and aspects of her past simply inserted for effect. It paints both Antoinette and Rochester as victims in a sense which can be inferred a bit from reading “Jane Eyre” as well.
