The literary conceit of this novel is that it's a prequel to Jane Eyre, wherein we learn the origin of the madwoman in the attic, Mr. Rochester's first wife. It's also a didactic relic of the 60s that links her insanity to the fact that they didn't care for little French girls in Jamaica. Racism, misogyny and classism drove Bertha nutters. Oops, spoiler!

So far, so good. Recommended by my buddy Shosha.

It's shocking how well this reads, and even more surprising that so much layering was added through the performances--you wouldn't think it necessary from a script that already seems so complete. A real joy just to see it jump off the page.
