Reviews
Murder, in Patricia Highsmith's hands, is made to occur almost as casually as the bumping of a fender or a bout of food poisoning. This downplaying of the dramatic... has been much praised, as has the ordinariness of the details with which she depicts the daily lives and mental processes of her psychopaths. Both undoubtedly contribute to the domestication of crime in her fiction, thereby implicating the reader further in the sordid fantasy that is being worked out., Mesmerizing... a Ripley novel is not to be safely recommended to the weak-minded or impressionable., In the same way that Vince Gilligan made Breaking Bad's Walter White an awful person that I took a guilty pleasure in rooting for, Highsmith made the detestable Tom Ripley an intriguing character that I hoped would get away with his crimes., For eliciting the menace that lurks in familiar surroundings, there's no one like Patricia Highsmith., [Highsmith] forces us to re-evaluate the lines between reason and madness, normal and abnormal, while goading us into sharing her treacherous hero's point of view., [A] riveting story that examines identity, ambition, sexuality, and a few different forms of love., The brilliance of Highsmith's conception of Tom Ripley was her ability to keep the heroic and demonic American dreamer in balance in the same protagonist--thus keeping us on his side well after his behavior becomes far more sociopathic than that of a con man like Gatsby., The particular subversive thrill of this novel is that the reader inevitably begins to associate with, and root for, the sociopathic Tom. The other notable pleasure, one that is shared by the four sequels that Highsmith wrote (the series is sometimes called the Ripliad), is the way the writing immerses you in the details of mid-century travel. Gin at lunchtime, cafes in the sunlight, lives conducted through letter-writing: all a lovely backdrop to a tale of murder., I devoured [The Talented Mr. Ripley] and didn't want it to end. I had to ration myself to a couple of pages a day., [A] masterwork of American noir....Scene by masterful scene, sentence by sentence, with each disturbing thought and memory, Highsmith reveals how Ripley's psyche veers out of bounds, a slow drip punctuated by shocking jumps., Mesmerizing...a Ripley novel is not to be safely recommended to the weak-minded or impressionable., [Highsmith] has created a world of her own--a world claustrophobic and irrational which we enter each time with a sense of personal danger., The Talented Mr. Ripley is a standard-bearer, indelibly woven into the fabric of contemporary crime fiction.

Synopsis
Ripley is back. This new publication of Patricia Highsmith's classic inaugurates the complete Ripley series at Norton. 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"--immortalized in the 1998 film starring Matt Damon, Jude Law, and Gywneth Paltrow--is an unforgettable introduction to this debonair confidence man, whose talent for self-invention and calculated murder is chronicled in four subsequent novels., Since his debut in 1955, Tom Ripley has evolved into the ultimate bad boy sociopath.

A dark reworking of Henry James's The Ambassadors , The Talented Mr. Ripley serves as an unforgettable introduction to this smooth confidence man, whose talent for murder and self-invention is chronicled in four subsequent Ripley novels., An American classic and the inspiration for the Emmy Award-winning Netflix series.
