Review
I love [Highsmith] so much . . . what a revelation her writing is (Gillian Flynn Wall Street Journal)
Highsmith is the poet of apprehension rather than fear . . . Highsmith's finest novel to my mind is The Tremor of Forgery, and if I were asked what it is about I would reply, "apprehension"' (Graham Greene)
One of her best books ... She creates a lot of dread and a lot of apprehension very casually (Jonathan Lethem Chicago Tribune)
One of Highsmith's finest novels (New York Times)
From the Publisher
Classic Patricia Highsmith novel - claimed to be one of her very best.
