Abstract

The Talented Mr. Ripley is a psychological thriller novel that delves into the complexity of human identity, socioeconomic class, and the American Dream through themes such as deception, envy, and the pursuit of self-fulfillment. Written by Patricia Highsmith and released in 1955, the novel has received widespread recognition for its nuanced characterization of the protagonist, Tom Ripley, who expertly embodies the psychological and moral complications of these themes. The novel addresses essential themes concerning the nature of human identity and how social rank, class, and the American Dream impact our goals, ideals, and our actions through critical reading and analysis of the text. This novel is not just a page-turner but also a literary work that offers a comprehensive review of human psychology, morals, and the society in which we live
