Very neurotic and unstable at times. Incredibly grounded in humanity at others. It was a whirlwind of a love story with its bitterness and its sweetness. Highsmith’s poetic finesse was a highlight, and the strength in the novel comes from how much one’s own feelings and experiences can commingle seamlessly with that of the cast of characters.

Pretty intense and melancholy for a romance, but I enjoyed it and I liked Highsmith's style of not explaining every action the characters took. A lot is left to the reader to interpret, and that was interesting.

Me encantó el crecimiento de la protagonista como persona. El aspecto de autodescubrimiento y de conocer las relaciones homosexuales en la década de los 40s/50s me pareció genial.
Los personajes son demasiado reales, aunque al principio Therese me estresaba mucho por obsesiva pero luego me puse en sus zapatos e igual la amé.
