In the Talented Mr Ripley the author creates a psychopath that is not only cringe worthy but very much believable. By showing the main character who presents many of the characteristics and traits of such a person‚ from pathological lying to lack of empathy for others‚ Highsmith does well at getting the reader to root for a brutal murderer and sympathize with him even though he is undeserving.

Silly Mrs. Bennet? I beg to differ… It has been alluded to by many scholars that Mrs. Bennet is simply a figment of Jane Austen’s comical imagination. That she is‚ simply put‚ a silly character.
