I personally think there are two reasons:

1. the lack of narrator name focuses the attention on Rebecca, which is the true main character of the book (if the name didn’t already give it away)

2. the lack of narrator name also allows the reader to more easily put themself into the narrator’s role, as the outside observer trying to resolve this mystery

Thoughts?

(cannot stand that book, tried to read it and gave up). Im sure you noticed the narrators lack of name, maybe you could start with theorising why that was so? :)

Ever read Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte? That is my all-time favorite. :]
