The collection Rendezvous by the English writer Daphne Du Maurier (1907–1989) includes stories written in the late 1920s and early 1930s and in the decade between 1937 and 1947. Like all of Du Maurier's short stories, these fourteen stories amaze with their variety of plots and genres. Maintained in the Gothic tradition, “Escort” is adjacent to the theatrical, in the spirit of Chekhov, “Prima” and “Born Artist”; the psychological study “Behind a Closed Door” - with the instructive anecdote “Missup”; "The Blessed Virgin", "Adieu Sagesse" and "Fairy Tale" play on the form of a fairy tale or parable in a unique way - with the sharply satirical "Lover", "Rendezvous", "Angels and Archangels". There are also Hitchcockian tense stories typical of Du Maurier: “Panic,” “For No Apparent Reason” and “A Split Second.” Of all the stories listed, only the last two stories have already been published in Russian before, the rest are published for the first time.
