For film buffs out there, I thought it'd be neat to highlight a handful of books that famed director Alfred Hitchcock adapted into films:

Widecombe Fair by Eden Phillpotts (1913) [Adapted into the film The Farmer's Wife (1928)]

The Pleasure Garden by Oliver Sandys (1923) [Adapated into the film of the same name in 1925]

Four Corners of the World by A. E. W. Mason (1917) [Includes the story "The Crystal Trench" which was adapted into an Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode directed by Hitchcock himself]
