A Happy Ending... For a Change.,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Price of Salt (Taschenbuch)
I was introduced to Therese and Carol, the two protaganists in Highsmith's lesbian romance The Price of Salt, my Sophomore year of college in a Gay and Lesbian Lit. Class. The professor told the class she had picked the book becuase it was well written and it presented an interesting twist to a gay love story, no one dies or goes straight at the end(imagine that). This alone is not neccesarily compelling enough to get someone to read Salt, after all, today's gay and lesbian love stories often end in positive and fulfilled ways. But for Highsmith's Salt, written in the 1950s, this was a stretch. The reader will enjoy the subtleness of the prose and the indepth look at the confusion and chaos that can occur when two women come together and realize their mutual attraction and then love for each other. In addition, the novel is a dynamic look at 1950s America as the characters adventure out of New York and off into the Great American Wide Open. I encourage gay and straight readers to venture forth with Therese and Carol. Salt allows a beautiful look into the world of finding one's soul mate and falling in love. Becuase, above all, Highsmith has written a love story, not just a lesbian work of fiction.

Forty Years Later,
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Price of Salt (Taschenbuch)
I discovered this book, and my own sexuality, in the late "50's." Through the years it has been the one title and story that I have always remembered. Now, I've a new copy and reading it again has brought back all the memories of the first time I read it. A beautiful story with a beautiful ending... I only wish Highsmith had writen a sequel with Carol and Therese.

subtle but very good, very complex,
Von Ein Kunde
Rezension bezieht sich auf: The Price of Salt (Taschenbuch)
The Price of Salt is one of those books where you read a few chapters and then let them swim around in your mind a while. The story is presented in a quick-read fashion but the subject matter is very complex. Highsmith describes the developing relationship between Carol and Therese in a very real, accessible way. It's worth reading a few times.
