Uncle Silas: The book behind Lies We Tell

A Sheltered Heiress Enters the Guardianship of Her Father's Disgraced Brother and Must Read Piety, Family Loyalty, and Domestic Confinement as Instruments in a Murderous Inheritance Plot · by Sheridan Le Fanu, Claire Connolly

Why this book?

Lisa Mulcahy's film keeps orphaned heiress Maud, suspected murderer Uncle Silas, his claim to guardianship, the dangerous son, fortune and confinement at Bartram-Haugh. It cuts much of the novel's opening, accelerates Maud's arrival and gives sexual violence, pseudomedical control and her resistance a more explicit feminist emphasis. Names and outcomes are adjusted, but the inheritance trap and domestic struggle come directly from Le Fanu's sensation novel.
