On Perfume: The Story of a Murderer (1986) by Patrick SüskindIn Grenouille, Süskind has created a beloved serial killer with a powerful sense of smell. His beginning, a Dickens novel; his journey, a bildungsroman; his end, a Sartrian exit. More than an inspirational manual for murderers, Perfume is a treatise on the implosive relation between love and existence.
