Book summaryRachel Cameron is a 34-year-old single woman, a schoolteacher in Manawaka, Canada. She bears resignedly the routine of teaching, the controlling behavior of her mother, but wants desperately to love and be loved. The novel takes place during a summer when Rachel encounters Nick, an old schoolmate who is now also a teacher; this novel was the basis for the 1968 movie RACHEL, RACHEL. Media reviews"...[S]uggests some aspects of existentialist thought as Rachel must choose between the nausea of bad faith and the anguish and despair of freedom. Laurence is also existential throughout her work in Sartre's primary sense in that her focus is on man's process of becoming, a process which reveals to him his essence or spirit. However, in distinction to existentialist thought and in accordance with the conventions of Christian believe, man discovers a preexisting spirit." |
