March Novel Notions Book Club
Breakfast at Tiffany’s
By: Truman Capote
In this seductive, wistful masterpiece, Capote created a woman whose name has entered the American idiom and whose style is a part of the literary landscape—her poignancy, wit, and naïveté continue to charm.
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 heart-breaker, a perplexer, a traveler, a tease. She is irrepressibly ‘top banana in the shock department’, and one of the shining flowers of American fiction.
Join monthly conversations as a part of a book club program hosted in the galleries with discussions led by youth and family program manager Emily Wesenick. From novice readers to avid bookworms, all are welcome to join. Book selections will draw from a wide range of genres and interests.
