  • Peyton Place es una novela de 1956 escrita por Grace Metalious.​​​ La obra describe las complicadas vidas de tres mujeres en una pequeña ciudad conservadora de Nueva Inglaterra, con temas recurrentes como la hipocresía, las desigualdades sociales y los privilegios de la clase en una historia que incluye incesto, aborto, adulterio, lujuria y asesinato.​ Vendió sesenta mil copias en los primeros diez días de su lanzamiento y permaneció en la lista de superventas del New York Times durante 59 semanas.​ La novela dio lugar a una franquicia que duraría cuatro décadas. Twentieth Century-Fox la adaptó como película en 1957,​ y Metalious escribió una novela de seguimiento que se publicó en 1959, llamada Return to Peyton Place, que también se filmó en 1961 con el mismo título. La novela original de 1956 fue adaptada de nuevo en 1964, convirtiéndose en una exitosa serie de televisión en horario estelar que duró hasta 1969. El término "Peyton Place" - una alusión a cualquier pequeño pueblo o grupo que guarda secretos escandalosos - ingresó en el léxico estadounidense.​ Una telenovela diurna de la NBC, titulada Return to Peyton Place, se emitió de 1972 a 1974, y la franquicia se completó con dos películas para televisión, que se emitieron en 1977 y 1985.

The novel spawned a franchise that would run through four decades. 20th Century-Fox adapted it as a movie in 1957, and Metalious wrote a follow-up novel that was published in 1959, titled Return to Peyton Place, which became a film in 1961 using the same name. The original 1956 novel was adapted again in 1964, in what became a prime time television series for 20th Century Fox Television that ran until 1969, and the term "Peyton Place" entered the American lexicon describing any small town or group that holds scandalous secrets. A daytime soap opera titled Return to Peyton Place ran from 1972 to 1974, and the franchise had two made-for-television movies: Murder in Peyton Place and Peyton Place: The Next Generation in 1977 and 1985 respectively.

  • I peccati di Peyton Place (Peyton Place) è un romanzo del 1956 di Grace Metalious. È il primo romanzo della scrittrice statunitense, all'epoca casalinga trentaduenne. L'opera era stata scritta come romanzo a sfondo sociale, ma la maggior parte dei lettori fu attirata dai fatti a sfondo sessuale e fu questa caratteristica più superficiale a decretarne il successo. Risulta fra i 16 maggiori bestseller della storia, che hanno superato i 10 milioni di copie in tutti i tipi di edizione. (it)
