Über diesen Titel

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

This is the third novel in Highsmith's hugely influential, groundbreaking Ripley series, which began with The Talented Mr Ripley.

'Highsmith constructs her plot with masterly finesse' DAILY TELEGRAPH

'Her books have stylistic texture, psychological depth, mesmeric readability' SUNDAY TIMES

'One of the greatest modernist writers' GORE VIDAL

'There's no such thing as a perfect murder . . . That's just a parlour game, trying to dream one up.'

Living on his French estate with his elegant heiress wife, Tom Ripley, on the cusp of middle age, is no longer the striving chancer of The Talented Mr. Ripley. Having accrued considerable wealth through a long career of crime, he tires of his idyllic retirement. Highsmith's chameleon longs to get back in the game, so when a friend needs a favour, he relishes the opportunity. Tom Ripley detests murder. Unless it is absolutely necessary. Wherever possible, he prefers someone else to do the dirty work. In this case, someone with no criminal record who can be manipulated to commit 'two simple murders' for a very generous fee.

Ripley's Game is followed by The Boy Who Followed Ripley and Ripley Under Water

I have heard quite several audiobooks of professional English speakers, who in principle did well. In principle.... When it comes to German notions, say 5 on the average of a book, here a bit more as a large portion of the plot takes place in Germany, it becomes disastrous: The speakers are unable to pronounce the most simple German words such that a native listener can recognize them, let alone digest. To my impression, this is a specific British problem, I just listened to a German operetta performed in Shanghai by an all-Chinese cast, worlds apart. Maybe it needs a psychoanalyst to explain this phenomenon.
