DU MAURIER DAPHNE: (1907-1989) British Author. An interesting T.L.S., Daphne du Maurier, one page, 8vo, Kilmarth, Par, Cornwall, 19th January 1974, to Miss. S. Stone in New York. Du Maurier responds to her admirer's letter and provides answers to her questions in three paragraphs, in full, 'Don't Look Now. In a brief flash before dying from the stab-wound, John saw the vaporetto with Laura, and the sisters, was bearing them to his funeral. This was a case of pre-cognition. The Alibi. Fenton had not killed the Kaufman woman, and his confession was, as you suggested, because everything seemed futile, and in some hopeless way he wanted to get back at his wife. The Birds. The movie was rather different from my story, in which I implied that the family concerned would indeed be finally destroyed by the birds.' Accompanied by the original envelope. A letter of interesting content for its references to several of Du Maurier's works, not least her famous novelette The Birds. About EX Don't Look Now is a short story which appeared as part of a collection entitled Not After Midnight in 1971. The collection was published under the title Don't Look Now in America. The novella was adapted into a classic British film of the horror/thriller genre in 1973, starring Julie Christie and Donald Sutherland and directed by Nicholas Roeg. The Alibi is also a short story written by Du Maurier which was published in a collection alongside seven other stories with the title The Breaking Point in 1959. The novelette The Birds was first published in 1952 as part of Du Maurier's collection entitled The Apple Tree. The story was the inspiration for Alfred Hitchcock's film The Birds, made in 1963 in the same year which The Apple Tree was reprinted as The Birds and Other Stories.

As the last Ice Age came to an end, around 10,000 years ago, the sea levels rose and Britain became separated from the European mainland. With this came the introduction of farming, and modern homo sapiens learnt how to produce food rather than gather it. These tools were used for everyday use in food preparation, but were also status symbols and weapons.
