View through CrossRef
Character migration is a major feature of the sequel, a genre that is far from new but that enjoyed a remarkable revival in allographic form in the 1990s. Daphne du Maurier’s characters in Rebecca (1938) still have a hold on readers’ imagination, with the eponymous formidable haunting figure threatening the new couple. Using Richard Saint-Gelais’s concept of transfictionality, this paper will examine how and to what effects Susan Hill contrives afterlives for Rebecca’s characters in Mrs de Winter (1993), her sequel to Rebecca, as an instance of character migration.
