A dizzying ride through the mind of Patricia Highsmith, the author of Strangers On A Train. Or was it? A blend of fact and fiction, it‘s difficult to know which are the facts and which fiction, so in that the author has succeeded. Not my favourite book this month but still intriguing. #Pop19 #NovelBasedOnATrueStory #ReadingWomensChallenge #HistoricalFictionBook

A pan isn't totally fair since I'm sure I missed allusions known to fans of Elizabeth Bishop, but I didn't enjoy any moment of reading this. The book's marketing is deceptive: the orphan rescue element is very minor and will disappoint readers who were intrigued by the premise of Bishop's missing weeks.
