Breakfast at Tiffany's - Truman Capote

It´s New York in the 1940s, where the martinis flow from cocktail hour till breakfast at Tiffany´s. And nice girls don´t, except, of course, Holly Golightly. Pursued by Mafia gangsters and playboy millionaires, Holly is a fragile eyeful of tawny hair and turned-up nose, a heartbreaker, a perplexer, a traveller, a tease. She is irrepressibly´top banana in the shock department´, and one of the shining flowers of American fiction.
