Silence of the Lambsby Thomas Harris
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:On the loose is a psychotic killer; locked away is a psychopathic madman. To catch one, the FBI needs the other . . . Just in time for the upcoming release of the major motion picture by Universal Studios of Harris's "Red Dragon, " the book that introduced Hannibal "the Cannibal" Lecter. Scheduled to open October 4, 2002, the film stars Edward Norton, Ralph Fiennes, and Sir Anthony Hopkins as Dr. Lecter. Review:"Razor-sharp entertainment, beautifully constructed and brilliantly written. Thrillers don't come any better than this." Clive Barker Review:"A virtual textbook on the craft of suspense, a masterwork of sheer momentum that rockets seamlessly toward its climax....Harris is quite simply the best suspense novelist working today." The Washington Post Review:"Clarice Starling has been as imitated within the thriller genre as Lecter. Consider her influence on The X-Files, for example; without Clarice, there'd be no Agent Scully, or at least no Agent Scully so wise or — and this is the thing — so good....Thomas Harris, former newspaperman, current recluse/thriller-writing genius, treats Clarice with exquisite tenderness and respect. Take the name, for instance, a piquant blend of clarity and radiance and scrappy little bird. Clarice has survived a childhood of poverty and abandonment, and with economy and grace, Harris shows us her determination to maintain her hard-won confidence in the face of every creep and bureaucratic obstacle that comes her way." Joyce Millman Review:"A psychological thriller so deftly woven and gripping that a reader can hardly get through one sentence fast enough to discover what's in the next." Associated Press Synopsis:Hannibal Lecter. The ultimate villain of modern fiction. Read the five-million-copy bestseller that scared the world silent... A young FBI trainee. An evil genius locked away for unspeakable crimes. A plunge into the darkest chambers of a psychopath's mind-- in the deadly search for a serial killer...
