Little Tales of Misogyny

Über

Little Tales of Misogyny is an anthology of short stories by American crime writer Patricia Highsmith. The 'tales' collected here are notable for their brevity - some comprise only a couple of pages - and macabre, exceedingly downbeat un-opinionated tone. The underlying theme of each story is the misfortune of women and/or women who destroy themselves or the lives of others, hence the book's title.
