À propos de cet audio

Tom Ripley passes his leisured days at his French country estate tending the dahlias, practicing the harpsichord, and enjoying the company of his lovely wife, Heloise. Never mind the bloodstains on the basement floor.

But some new neighbors have moved to Villeperce: the Pritchards, just arrived from America. they are a ghastly pair, with vulgar manners and even more vulgar taste. Most inconvenient, though, is their curiosity. Ripley does, after all, have a few things to hide. When menacing coincidences begin to occur, a spiraling contest of sinister hints and mutual terrorism ensues, resulting in one of Patricia Highsmith's most elegantly harrowing novels to date.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"One of our greatest modernist writers." (Gore Vidal)

Les plus pertinents
Really none of the Ripley books live up to the standard set by the Talented original. But this book in particular is a complete failure. The limp plot goes absolutely nowhere and Ripley continues to elude capture and consequence not because of any particular cunning on his part, but due to sheer incompetence by police and total luck that even people who hate him seem willing to keep his secrets or look the other way.

Weak ending to a classic series
