About this listen

A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING MATT DAMON, JUDE LAW AND GWYNETH PALTROW

One of the BBC's 100 Novels that shaped our world.

'An outstanding thriller which has deservedly become a classic' THE TIMES

'Ripley - amoral, hedonistic and charming - is a genuinely original creation' DAILY TELEGRAPH

'I'm a huge Highsmith fan. If there's one book I wish I'd written, it's The Talented Mr Ripley' SARAH WATERS

ONE OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL CRIME NOVELS EVER WRITTEN

Tom Ripley travels to Italy with a commission to coax a prodigal young American back to his wealthy father. But Ripley finds himself very fond of Dickie Greenleaf. He wants to be like him - exactly like him. Suave, agreeable and utterly amoral, Ripley will stop at nothing to accomplish his goal.

The Talented Mr. Ripley serves as an unforgettable introduction to this smooth confident man, whose talent for murder and self-invention is chronicled in four subsequent Ripley novels.

Critic reviews

"Precisely plotted, stylishly written, and kept alert by an icy wit. Streets ahead of the conventional thriller: a cool little classic of its kind." (Evening Standard)

Great rendition of a masterful book

Second ‘reading’ of the book through this excellent presentation. Highsmith is a genius in getting you on Tom’s side even though he’s an ogre. And as many ingenious twists and turns as any Agatha Christie. David Menken produces a first rate performance. Fully recommend it.
