what made me able to forgive maxim by the end of the book is the fact that rebecca was doomed anyway. i know this sounds bad, but it's the truth. she wanted to die -> she did everything in her power to die quickly in a manner of her own choosing. maxim became an unwilling and unknowing participant in her assisted suicide. she 100% intended it that way, whether or not it was meant to completely ruin him as well we don't know for sure but come on. the lady had one last ace in her sleeve, of course she would use it to drag him down with her. it didn't even have to be personal, just what he stands for is enough. with all of this i'm not saying that he's justified or that there weren't better courses of action he should've taken. but the stakes were stacked heavily against him. i mean Rebecca lived with him for 20 years, in which time she notably didn't die and we get no mention or even a hint of potential domestic violence either. if nothing else, that man had self control, and his wife of several decades was the best suited person to set him off. a dog you condition to bite will lash out. the first decision he makes completely on his own was to hide her body. he scrubbed her blood off the floor for what must've been hours he definitely had time to think about it and then he decided to not die. it almost destroys him anyway, by the time the narrator meets him he's borderline suicidal. his head had to be pulled above the water by other people because he was more than ready to be hang for his crime, which he recognizes as horrific. but he also admits that he would've shot rebecca again even if he knew what would happen, and he says this while he still thinks he killed a pregnant woman. he felt that much trapped.

"dein Herz ist ruhlos / wie die wilde freie See / Wenn der Abend beginnt singt der Wind / Rebecca, komm heim Rebecca / aus dem Nebelreich zurück nach Manderley."
