The Grifters
by Jim Thompson (1963). ____________________________________. This is one of the best novels written about the art of the con game. I had no idea it was first published in 1963 but goodness sakes, even after all the ways we've seen grifting committed by T---p, this book is a must read. There was a also a film made by Martin Scorcese & Stephen Frear based on this book, which won critical acclaim.
