Trouble with Harry is a great book. It explores trust, murder, suspense and great themes. It is a great story, with a great plot. Alfred Hitchcock did great transforming this novel to a movie, but the novel is better. It is a great novel that deserves to be read. You won't be dissapointed if you read it.

THE TROUBLE WITH HARRY is a hilarious book that is so endearing that it would fit as a children's story if not for some inappropriate things. It is a well-written story with developed and wonderful characters, wonderful morbid and black touches, and satisfying conclusions. This book was adapted by Alfred Hitchcock into a movie which is wonderful, too. Not everything is included in the movie, so I recommend this book. I watched the movie first so, I know that there are some really funny things in this book not included in the movie. One of the best characters is Mrs. Gravely. Also, for those who have read the book and seen the movie, I like the books story of the hedgehogs. It's odd how both the captain and Sam seemed to feel more sympathetic of the animals than of the person, while Jennifer didn't seem to care at all. Anyway, read the book, it is wonderful.

The Trouble With Harry by JT Story is a fun little book about a dead guy who nobody really cares about. The 1955 movie by Alfred Hitchcock is also very quirky. I saw the movie first, and I am a very big hitchcock fan, so I would probably say the movie is better. But, if you can manage to get your hands on a copy, its worth it. I had to special order mine from the UK, cost me about $60, but I'm glad i did. Entertaining book, easy read. If you like this, check out Drowning Mona. Much of the same dark comedy, but its very recent.
