Synopsis "Crimenes Imaginarios (in Spanish)"

Sidney y Alicia Bartleby, un joven matrimonio, residen en un pequeo cottage en la campia inglesa, l escribiendo, ella pitando. Estn casados desde hace varios aos y llevan una vida muy aislada. Sidney est redactando e intentando vender unos guiones para una serie televisiva, lo que les permitira paliar sus estrecheces econmicas, mientras sigue esperando la respuesta de un editor norteamericano sobre la publicacin de una novela, que han rechazado ya varias editoriales. La relacin entre ambos se va deteriorando y Alicia decide, como ya ha hecho en otras ocasiones, para descargar la tensin, ir a pasar una temporada a Brighton. Aunque en esta ocasin convienen que la separacin ser indefinida, hasta que ella sienta deseos de volver...Sidney, cuya imaginacin trabaja sin descanso, fbula sobre qu pasara si l hubiera asesinado a Alicia, en vez de tratarse simplemente de una separacin provisional, y empieza a comportarse de forma extraa...Y a fuerza de imaginar cosas horribles, acaban por suceder cosas horribles.

She was born in Fort Worth, Texas, in 1921, but moved to New York when she was six years old. By the age of sixteen, she became a writer. She was known for being a solitary person. She moved to Europe in 1963 and spent her last years in a secluded house near Locarno, on the border between Switzerland and Italy. Upon her death, she left three million dollars from her estate to Yaddo, the artists' community in upstate New York. Her first novel Strangers on a Train, was turned into a famous movie by Alfred Hitchcock in 1951. Her last novel Small g: A Summer Idyll was published posthumously just over a month later.
