The title says it all. Long out of print, this cult classic resurfaces with a vengeance - from the man who makes the mistake of asking his prospective father-in-law for his daughter's hand in marriage, to Oona the alluring cave-woman. In these provocative, often hilarious, sketches, Highsmith turns our next-door neighbours into sadistic psychopaths lying in wait among white picket fences and manicured lawns.
