Re: Recent Reading
I'd also add Manhunter, the original film version of Red Dragon, to my list. It was better than the book, much better than the remake.
Colin Wilson gets a lot of scorn these days and I'd have to say most of it is deserved. But his fine crime novel, The Glass Cage, about a serial killer obsessed with the works of William Blake, has to be the template for Red Dragon. The protagonist is pretty much a Profiler though that term didn't exist in the sixties when the book was written.
