The Hitchcock Murders by Peter Conrad
Alfred Hitchcock remains the most famous of film-makers. Cultural critic Peter Conrad can date the start of his Hitchcock obsession to his first boyhood viewing of Hitchcock's Psycho, one afternoon in Tasmania some forty years ago.
'Conrad's book is as witty, energetic and captivating as North by Northwest - and you can't top that' Sunday Times
