In the darkly satiric, often mordantly hilarious sketches that make up \u003ci\u003eLittle Tales of Misogyny\u003c\/i\u003e, Highsmith upsets our conventional notions of female character, revealing the devastating power of these once familiar creatures—\"The Dancer,\" \"The Female Novelist,\" \"The Prude\"—who destroy both themselves and the men around them. This work attests to Highsmith's reputation as \"the poet of apprehension\" (Graham Greene).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePatricia Highsmith\u003c\/b\u003e (1921–1995) was the author of more than twenty novels, including \u003ci\u003eStrangers on a Train, The Price of Salt\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Talented Mr. Ripley\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as numerous short stories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                    \n                \n            \u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Best Bookstore","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":46553109495969,"sku":"BBSNIJ9780393323375","price":19.95,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0525\/2084\/5473\/files\/9780393323375.jpg?v=1781726632","url":"https:\/\/www.bestbookstore.ca\/products\/little-tales-of-misogyny-paperback-by-patricia-highsmith","provider":"Best Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
