Description

BY THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY, CAROL AND STRANGERS ON A TRAIN

'For eliciting the menace that lurks in familiar surroundings, there's no one like Patricia Highsmith' TIME

'Highsmith neatly dismantles the American suburban idyll, subverting the cliches of domestic bliss' ANDREW WILSON

'Highsmith's writing is wicked . . . it puts a spell on you, after which you feel altered, even tainted' ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY

Slowly, Slowly in the Wind brilliantly assembles many of Patricia Highsmith's most nuanced and psychologically suspenseful works. Each of these twelve pieces, like all great short fiction, is a crystal-clear snapshot of lives both static and full of chaos.

In 'The Pond' Highsmith explores the unforeseen calamities that can unalterably shatter a single woman's life, while 'The Network' finds sinister loneliness and joy in the mundane yet engrossing friendships of a small community of urban dwellers.

In this enduring and disturbing collection, Highsmith evokes the gravity and horror of her characters' surroundings with even-handed prose and detailed imagination.
