I love Daphne du Maurier!
Haunting, atmospheric, imaginative, creepy and beautifully written, every time I read her, I love her writing even more.
The stand outs, for me, were 3 of the 5 long stories included here. ´The Apple´ is incredibly creepy and ´The Birds¨ is just unforgettable, Hitchcock based his movie on this story. I also loved ´The Old Man´, but there is not a bad one here.
