THE GLASS CELL - PATRICIA HIGHSMITH KARTONIERT ...

BY THE BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE TALENTED MR RIPLEY  CAROL AND STRANGERS ON A TRAIN 'Highsmith
writes about men like a spider writing about flies' OBSERVER 'For eliciting the menace that
lurks in familiar surroundings  there's no one like Patricia Highsmith' TIME 'The Glass Cell
has lost little of its disturbing power . . . Highsmith was a genuine one-off' DAILY TELEGRAPH
Based on a true story  The Glass Cell is Highsmith's deeply disturbing fictionalisation of
everything she learned. Falsely convicted of fraud  the easy-going but naive Philip Carter is
sent to prison. Despite his devotion to Hazel  his wife  and the support of David Sullivan  a
lawyer and friend who tries to avenge the injustice done to him  Carter endures six lonely and
drug-ravaged years. Upon his release  Carter is a much more discerning  suspicious  and violent
man. His beautiful wife is waiting for him. He has never had any reason to doubt her. For those
around him  earning back his trust can mean the difference between life and death.
