Current Title: Breakfast At Tiffany's

Lascivious Literates and Prurient Page Turners,
A little reminder since we are 2 weeks away....

BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY'S
Our current title Breakfast At Tiffany's by Truman Capote is a slim novella of huge impact. In 1961 Blake Edwards adapted the story for screen and forever immortalized the "Travelling" Miss Golightly and the little black dress.
However,the story manages in it's small size to be so much bigger than the film.
Heartbreakingly human as it is entertaining Capote's little written snapshot of a brownstone in New York remains a poignant story of love, loss and friendship among fragile people.
