First, though, I thank Patricia Moran. She and I have spent countless hours talking about Rhys over the years, whether in the context of a graduate seminar, a conference panel, or in our many phone conversations and I count myself lucky to have her as a partner in study and a close friend. She continues to inspire me with her sharp insights and fearlessness. I am also grateful to all of the extraordinary Rhys scholars who contributed to this volume and appreciate our author’s ironic ability to create such community – one thing she never experienced in her own life. Thankyou: Mary Lou Emery, Carine Mardorossian, H. Adlai Murdoch, John J. Su, Elaine Savory, Mary Joannou, Rishona Zimring and Sue Thomas.  \nJackie Jones at Edinburgh University Press has been an extraordinary editor with whom to work; her vision and guidance from the beginning of this project has been invaluable. It has also been a pleasure to work with Dhara Patel, and I am g","cbCaildrkqxi7wCO","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaildrkqxi7wCO","pdf",1647839,257,"English","# Introduction: The Haunting of Jean Rhys\n# PART I Rhys and Modernist Aesthetics\n## 1.
