About this Event
In the first thriller ever to be discussed by Emily’s Walking Book Club, we follow Tom Ripley - fiction’s most terrifying con man - as he leaves behind his past as a ‘sissy’ to pursue playboy Dickie Greenleaf, who’s enjoying a glamorous life in Italy. Psychologically fascinating and deeply unsettling, this classic noir points to the Ripley latent in all of us, as we consider whether a psychopath really is, as Highsmith said, ‘just an average man living more clearly than the world permits him.’
