The Loving Spirit

by Daphne du Maurier

Daphne's first novel.

'She longed for the other one to be with her tonight, he who was part of her, with his dark hair and his dark eyes so like her own. He who had not come yet, but who stared at her out of the future, and walked with her in her dreams.'

A powerful, exuberant romance through three generations, of Cornwall, of passion and drama, of sailing ships and the glory of wind and sea.

Janet Coombe was born with the loving spirit and she passed it on to her son Joseph. In Janet's great-granddaughter Jennifer, it again reappeared, to break down the barrier of years. Wild and erie, it was something that carried them beyond all prudence in their need to love and be loved.
