But Ripley finds himself very fond of Dickie Greenleaf. He wants to be like him--exactly like him.  Suave, agreeable, and utterly amoral, Ripley stops at nothing--certainly not only one murder--to accomplish his goal.  Turning the mystery form inside out, Highsmith shows the terrifying abilities afforded to a man unhindered by the concept of evil.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vintage, 1992","offers":[{"title":"The Talented Mr. Ripley \/ Very Good","offer_id":47948800098596,"sku":"9780679742296VG","price":6.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0714\/9951\/4148\/files\/50791b3cc870125592f693961414345412f5945_v5.jpg?v=1718812016","url":"https:\/\/brookingsbooks.com\/products\/9780679742296","provider":"Brookings Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
