Background and themes: -------------------------- Strangers on a Train is a psychological study of madness,entrapment, guilt, and complicity. Madness and entrapment: Highsmith explores how both ordered and disordered lives can lead to “abnormal†behavior and disturbed minds. The limits of entrapment, innocence and guilt, and madness and sanity fade as the story develops and the reader is faced with a Guy who isn’t completely innocent and a Bruno that can be seen as a victim. The awakening of Guy’s destructive desires suggests that conflict between conscious behavior and subconscious desire may trigger the criminal potential in anyone, and result in immoral action, the doubling of personality and the consequent ethical and psychological degradation. Guilt and complicity: Patricia Highsmith once commented that she is “interested in the effect of guilt†on her heroes. This novel is a study of guilt, and the kind of pressures that destroy a man’s soul. The exploration of guilt also provokes a reflection on the definition and limits of complicity.
