โฆ Synopsis
In this seductive, wistful masterpiece, Truman Capote created a woman whose name has entered the American idiom and whose style is a part of the literary landscape. Holly Golightly knows that nothing bad can ever happen to you at Tiffanyโs; her poignancy, wit, and naรฏvetรฉ continue to charm.
Immortalised by Audrey Hepburnโs sparkling performance in the 1961 film of the same name, Breakfast at Tiffanyโs is one of Truman Capoteโs greatest works.
This volume also includes three of Capoteโs best-known stories, โHouse of Flowers,โ โA Diamond Guitar,โ and โA Christmas Memory,โ which the Saturday Review called โone of the most moving stories in our language.โ It is a tale of two innocentsโa small boy and the old woman who is his best friendโwhose sweetness contains a hard, sharp kernel of truth.
