  • 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)
