I think all the Ripley's need to be read in order; I did that
again for
this reading and found them not so good as I recall, but bear
in mind
that these were written over a 24 year period (I think this
one was 1956
--times were different then all over the world and especially
in
England, Spain and France then. But there are some authors
(and we all
know which they are) that are "Agatha Christie" to us, we
will re-read
and re-read. Does someone have access to a "publishing line"
here and
see how many times the Ripley's (and Highsmith in general)
have been
republished??? Dr. Stevenson where are you when I need
you???
