Sinopsis de ELEVEN
Unsuspecting victims are devoured by their own obsessions in this perfectly chilling collection. A man becomes devoted to his pet snails, with fatal results. A young nanny turns arsonist in a bid to become heroine of the hour. A boy finally stands up to his mother, with knife in hand. Highsmith weaves a world claustrophobic in its intensity, disturbing in its mundanity, as she probes the dark corners of the human psyche. "Eleven" is a collection of masterpieces of Highsmith's particular art, full of compulsion, foreboding and cruel pleasures.
1 reseñas sobre el libro ELEVEN
Es el primer libro que leo de Patricia Highsmith, y me ha encantado. Cada relato es una experiencia en si mismo, tan diferentes, pero intensos y asfixiantes en distintos aspectos. Tan variados que es difícil asimilar que sean parte del mismo libro, o de la misma autora, y sin embargo, hay señales que te indican que sí, se trata de cada atmósfera y cada desenlace, simplemente genial.
