   • Patricia Highsmithová

   • 256 stránok

   Patricia Highsmith sa radí medzi výrazné osobnosti americkej literatúry. Literárna kritika autorku častokrát nazýva zakladateľkou moderného psychologického trileru a román Talent pána Ripleyho považuje za jednu z najlepších kníh 20. storočia. Tom Ripley je bystrý a charizmatický mladý muž, ktorý pracuje ako poslíček a klavirista. Zvláštnou zhodou okolností sa zoznámi s bohatým továrnikom Herbertom Greenleafom a ten ho požiada, aby presvedčil jeho syna Dickieho, nech sa vráti do rodinného podniku. Tom mladíka nájde, spriatelí sa s ním aj s jeho priateľkou Marge a spoločne si užívajú bezstarostný život v Taliansku. Po čase má Dickie pocit, že Tom ho začína nudiť, a rozhodne sa Ripleyho zbaviť.

2. The Talented Mr. Ripley

   • 254 stránok
   • 9 hodin čítania

   Since his debut in 1955, Tom Ripley has evolved into the ultimate bad boy sociopath, influencing countless novelists and filmmakers. In this first novel, we are introduced to suave, handsome Tom Ripley: a young striver, newly arrived in the heady world of Manhattan in the 1950s. A product of a broken home, branded a "sissy" by his dismissive Aunt Dottie, Ripley becomes enamored of the moneyed world of his new friend, Dickie Greenleaf. This fondness turns obsessive when Ripley is sent to Italy to bring back his libertine pal but grows enraged by Dickie's ambivalent feelings for Marge, a charming American dilettante. A dark reworking of Henry James's The Ambassadors, The Talented Mr. Ripley is an unforgettable introduction to this debonair confidence man, whose talent for self-invention and calculated murder is chronicled in four subsequent novels.
