Patricia Highsmith
The Snail Watcher

Published by Diogenes as Der Schneckenforscher
English Title: Eleven

From the eerily outlandish (a man suffocated by countless snails) to the irrational and brutal (a child's revenge on his mother for cooking his pet turtle), â€șElevenâ€č presents a gallery of bizarre characters, each driven by strange, unspoken urges.

Quotes

»No other writer after 1945 has ever analysed neuroses, fears and tiny hopes as cruelly and precisely as Highsmith does in these stories written between 1941 and 1966.«Die Zeit
