Her 1938 novel "Rebecca" was a phenomenal success, selling millions of copies and winning the 13th Academy Award when adapted into a film by Alfred Hitchcock. Du Maurier was born into an artistic family in London, where she was immersed in literature and drama from a young age. With three daughters, her father wished for a son, leading to profound gender suppression and conflict throughout her life and literary works.
