Truman Capote’s unfinished final novel is an unsparing tell-all of New York high society that sent a sesimic shock through the public and Capote’s own social circle.  Catapulted from a childhood spent in a Missouri orphanage to the dizzying peaks of New York high society, the destitute and debauched writer P. B. Jones spends his days moving between the paltry cell of a Manhattan Y.M.C.A. and the opulent playgrounds of the metropolitan elite.  ...

Nothing horrible can ever happen at Tiffany's, Holly Golightly knows. Capote created a lady whose name has become a part of the American language, and whose style has become a part of the literary landscape-her poignancy, wit, and naiveté continue to captivate.

Holly Golightly is a glittering socialite mover and shaker: generally upwards, sometimes sideways and, every now and then, down. She's up all night drinking cocktails and breaking hearts. She's a shoplifter, a delight, a drifter, a tease. In short, she's an icon. Truman Capote's most famous work, Breakfast at Tiffany's is the ultimate ode to dreamers.
