Reviews
“This comprehensive study of Highsmith adaptations covers work from the entirety of the author’s career and includes interviews with film directors (among them Wim Wenders) as well as investigating Highsmith adaptations in relation to dualisms, queer cinema, and noir. … The Palgrave Studies in Adaptation and Visual Culture series already contains many examples of this maxim and provides the opportunity for many more to come.” (Peter Lewis, Adaptation, Vol. 13 (1), 2019)
“At last, here is a collection of lively, practical studies that treat adaptation in a flexible, almost Darwinian sense, showing the many ways in which artistic culture perpetuates, survives, evolves and innovates. The book is also welcome because it embraces such a rich variety of movingimage media.” (James Naremore, author of Charles Burnett: A Cinema of Symbolic Knowledge, 2017)“If there was any question that adaptation studies is one of the most vibrant intellectual arenas today, this collection leaves no doubt with its lively exploration of new texts, new films, and, most importantly, new critical perspectives and debates.” (Timothy Corrigan, Professor of Cinema and Media Studies, English, and History of Art, The University of Pennsylvania, USA)
