The World Of Patricia Highsmith

A lover of cats, snails and precious little else, Patricia Highsmith lived a peripatetic life, spanning the United States, Mexico and Europe. In this guide we chart the places she lived and frequented and where too she located her uniquely unsettling stories and novels, among them the series beginning with The Talented Mr Ripley series, Carol aka The Price Of Salt and Strangers On A Train.
