xThe Pledge
Subverting the traditions of stereotypical psychological thrillers... not a book for anyone who likes comfortable endings
Author: Friedrich Dürrenmatt
Fascinating ((The Washington Post)) ((Mr. Dürrenmatt deftly wove perplexing moral questions into his short novel)) ((Atlantic Monthly)) A young girl is murdered in a Swiss town, and the detective promises the victim's mother that he will find the perpetrator. After deciding the wrong man has been arrested, he sets a trap for the real killer, but the harsh twists of the story make the detective pay a high price for his promise. Samir Greiss's brilliant translation showcases the unique ability of the most famous Swiss writer, Friedrich Dürrenmatt, in crafting dialogue, and his genius for timing, suspense, and creating a chilling ending. The novel has been translated into more than 15 languages, adapted for the stage several times, and turned into films in Italy, Hungary, Britain, and Germany. Its most recent cinematic adaptation was in the United States in 2001, directed by Sean Penn and starring Jack Nicholson.
