Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. What is the first name of the narrator of 'Rebecca'?

Answer: Never specified

I think that's amazing. In almost four hundred pages, the narrator is either "I" or "Mrs de Winter". The other three were characters in the story.
2. What happened to the narrator the second time she saw Maxim de Winter?

Answer: She spilled a vase of flowers

The narrator spilled a vase of anemones, and Maxim invited her to sit with him.
3. Maxim proposes to the narrator over which meal?

Answer: Breakfast

The narrator was about to go to New York with horrible Mrs. Van Hopper.
4. What was the name of Jasper's mother?

Answer: Never specified

Jasper, a dog, never had information supplied about his parentage.
5. What was the name of the woman who suggested the fancy dress ball to Maxim?

Answer: Lady Crowan

Lady Crowan wasn't very nice.
6. What color dress did the narrator wear to the aforementioned ball (originally)?

Answer: White

Maxim was furious--apparently that was the exact same dress that Rebecca had worn two years before (Mrs. Danvers had tipped the narrator to wear it). The narrator went upstairs and changed into blue.
7. What was the name of the doctor that Rebecca went to see the afternoon before she died?

Answer: Baker

He told Rebecca that she had ovarian cancer and would never have children. This may have made her suicidal...
8. Where was the ship that sailed into the bay at Manderley and uncovered Rebecca's boat from?

Answer: Holland or Germany; they weren't sure

A diver, going to look at the hull of the ship, found Rebecca's boat underneath--with a skeleton in the cabin.
9. Who killed Rebecca de Winter?

Answer: Maxim

Rebecca told Maxim that she was pregnant with another man's child, who would inherit Manderley. Maxim shot her. She was lying, of course; she had ovarian cancer.
10. What happens to Manderley at the end of the book?

Answer: It burns down

Manderley burns down. We never know who set the fire--but Mrs. Danvers packed up all her stuff and left earlier that afternoon. It's hoped that Rebecca's ghost dies with the house.
