The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer by Ellen Rimbauer

At the turn of the twentieth century, Ellen Rimbauer, the young bride of Seattle industrialist John Rimbauer, began keeping a remarkable diary. This diary became the secret place where Ellen could confess her anxieties about her new marriage, express her confusion over her emerging sexuality, and contemplate the nightmare that her life was becoming. The diary not only follows the development of a girl into womanhood, it follows the construction of the Rimbauer mansion called Rose Red an enormous home that would be the site of so many horrific and inexplicable tragedies in the year ahead. The Diary of Ellen Rimbauer: My Life at Rose Red is a rare document, one that gives us an unusual view of daily life among the aristocracy in the early 1900s, a window into one woman s hidden emotional torment, and a record of the mysterious events at Rose Red that scandalised society at the time. Edited by Joyce Reardon, Ph.D., as part of her research, the diary is being published as preparations are being made by Dr Reardon to enter Rose Red and fully investigate its disturbing history.
Joyce Reardon is a Professor of Psychology. She is editing Ellen Rimbauer's diaries as part of her research into the remarkable history of Rose Red.
