The Price of Salt : A Norton Critical Edition

Highsmith, Patricia

This Norton Critical Edition includes:
*The 1952 novel along with-for comparative reading-Patricia Highsmith’s two Afterwords (1984 and 1990)
*Editorial matter by Terry Castle
*Background materials on The Price of Salt’s textual history and genesis (1948-52)
*An unusually rich Criticism section, thematically arranged to promote classroom discussion.
Letters to Patricia Highsmith (1952-65) never before published allow today’s readers to understand something of this novel’s deeply personal power, while reviews of the 1952, 1984, and 1991 editions trace the novel’s critical reception in a changing world.
Other topics include lesbian pulp fiction, a brief history of lesbianism in the 1950s and Carol, the 2014 film adaptation of The Price of Salt.
* A Selected Bibliography
