A review by hpuphd
Angel Street by Patrick Hamilton

3.0

While I was watching that 2020 movie with Elisabeth Moss, The Invisible Man, it made me think of this 1941 thriller by Patrick Hamilton, so I read the play that gave us the word “gaslighting,” for messing with the mind of a spouse. The new movie was inspired by the H.G. Wells novel, so they said, but this play seems to be somewhere in its background, too.
