Mrs. March

The latest title with an unreliable female narrator, Mrs. March is a suspenseful thriller with an old-fashioned ‘Hitchcock’ style narrative. A dark study of a woman’s instability and unravelling, Mrs. March is the wife of a successful author who believes everyone is talking about her. Mr. March’s latest book is a popular novel with a prostitute as the main character. When someone casually mentions that her husband based the character on her, Mrs. March grows more paranoid and descends into madness. I enjoyed following how she grows more and more suspicious of everyone around her and her warped reactions to events. The book has already been optioned to be made into a movie starring Elizabeth Moss.
