Two Layers of Repetition in Kate Morton’s The House at Riverton

Abstrakt

The article discusses the two layers of repetition in Kate Morton’s The House at Riverton (2006) and their mutual correlations. The first layer concerns the setting of some parts of the novel, namely the 1910s and 1920s. The past is relived in fiction, fuelled by the nostalgia for the pre-World War II days and the enduring interest in early 20th-century aristocrats, socialites, and war poets. The second layer involves the reconstruction of the past by means of a historical film and the reminiscences of Grace, the protagonist, who at the dusk of her life attempts to revive the tumultuous events she witnessed in her youth.
