CodEX Machina

Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier - Strange Land Book Club 3

30 Jun 2025

Description

From Merlin to mansions…the CodEX Machina crew discusses Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier (quite exuberantly) on the latest installment of Strange Land Book Club. In Making Book History, we discuss the discovery of a fragment of the Suite Vulgate du Merlin (a contemporaneously popular 13th century French telling of the King Arthur saga) in, of all things, the binding of a 16th century archival registry. Hey, when you need paper, you grab the closestbook, right?
