Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Before Alfred Hitchcock adapted her debut novel, Strangers on a Train, for the big screen; before her suave and sociopathic Thomas Ripley snaked his way into the canon of psychological suspense; and before The Price of Salt became a cult classic of romantic obsession, who was Patricia Highsmith? Focused on her formative years in Manhattan, this condensed edition of Highsmiths monumental Diaries and Notebooks reveals Pat at her most passionate and florescent. Beginning in 1941 at Barnard College and encompassing the Texas natives adventurous twenties,?The New York Years intertwines scenes from her dizzying social liferife with sleepless nights barhopping in the queer underground Greenwich Village scene, always juggling too many loverswith an intimate self-portrait of a young artist who by day dispassionately wrote comics for a paycheck. Amid all the hangovers and the breakups, she read voraciously and honed her craft with verve. Laid bare in this perennial readers edition are the bold, hilarious, romantic, tragic, and maddeningly contradictory observations of one of our greatest modernist writers (Gore Vidal). Essential for understanding Patricia Highsmiths transgressive life and prophetic work, this volume is also one of the most observant and ecstatic accounts . . . about being young and alive in New York City (Dwight Garner,New York Times). Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781324092940
