Notă biografică

Patricia Highsmith (1921-1995) was born in Fort Worth, Texas, and moved to New York when she was six. In her senior year, she edited the college magazine, having decided at the age of sixteen to become a writer. Her first novel, Strangers on a Train (1950), was made into a classic film by Alfred Hitchcock in 1951. The Talented Mr Ripley (1955), introduced the fascinating anti-hero Tom Ripley, and was made into an Oscar-winning film in 1999 by Anthony Minghella. Highsmith died in Locarno, Switzerland, in February 1995. Her last novel, Small g: A Summer Idyll, was published posthumously, the same year.

Descriere

A gripping novel that explores the shifting sands of moral values - is murder still murder when committed in a lawless place?

Recenzii

"Her best novel." —The New Yorker

"Larger, funnier, and more thematically ambitious than any of Highsmith’s other novels."—Francine Prose

“Highsmith is the poet of apprehension rather than fear. … Highsmith's finest novel to my mind is The Tremor of Forgery, and if I were asked what it is about I would reply, 'apprehension.'” —Graham Greene

"Highsmith has produced work as serious in its implications and as subtle in its approach as anything being done in the novel today." —Julian Symons

"Whereas we read Stephen King or Ruth Rendell to relish the thrills that come from carefully controlled verbal terror, Highsmith is not to be taken so lightly. She conveys a firm, unshakable belief in the existence of evil--personal, psychological, and political."—Boston Phoenix
