About the Author
Patricia Highsmith (1921–1995) was the author of more than twenty novels, including Strangers on a Train, The Price of Salt, The Blunderer and The Talented Mr. Ripley, as well as numerous short stories.
"A great American writer…Highsmith's writing is wicked…it puts a spell on you." ―Entertainment Weekly
Now a major motion picture.
Patricia Highsmith's story of romantic obsession may be one of the most important, but still largely unrecognized, novels of the twentieth century. First published in 1952 and touted as "the novel of a love that society forbids," the book soon became a cult classic.
Based on a true story plucked from Highsmith's own life, Carol tells the riveting drama of Therese Belivet, a stage designer trapped in a department-store day job, whose routine is forever shattered by a gorgeous epiphany―the appearance of Carol Aird, a customer who comes in to buy her daughter a Christmas toy. Therese begins to gravitate toward the alluring suburban housewife, who is trapped in a marriage as stultifying as Therese's job. They fall in love and set out across the United States, ensnared by society's confines and the imminent disapproval of others, yet propelled by their infatuation. Carol is a brilliantly written story that may surprise Highsmith fans and will delight those discovering her work.
This authorized edition includes an afterword by Patricia Highsmith. Previously titled The Price of Salt.

評分當時讀的很纍。
評分磕到吐血
評分3.5星。還算是值得一讀吧,比同名電影在人物和情節綫索上都豐富一些。然而遺憾是同樣的,一個本可以更精彩更深入的女性故事,被寫成瞭跟今天的少女們幻想被霸道總裁和高富帥愛上差不多的通俗小說,並且幾乎沒跟時代背景發生什麼關係。語言的確不錯,但一些精彩的描寫被敘事上的囉嗦給淹沒瞭。沒讀過作者的其他作品,不過僅就這一本來講,我想說通俗作傢就是通俗作傢。
評分未完成,看過電影後買的,但決定把書齣掉瞭
