Well, if you ask me... Breakfast at Tiffany's
Breakfast at Tiffany's always reminds me of that Seinfeld episode. George tells Jerry that it's the book they are reading for book club and Jerry replies with "Truman Capote?"
George: Yeah
Jerry: Great writer!
George: Oh yeah
Jerry: You ever read any of his books
George: No? You?
Jerry: No
:)
I hadn't read any of Capote's work either, but I had the audio version of this book and I was looking for a short listen during a hockey game last week so I fired it up. It was a great story based on an interesting character. I loved the way Holly just rambled on and on and on sometimes.
I also found Capote's writing chock full of fantastic detail. I found I was feeling the story more than just listening to it.
A delightful listen. Highly recommended.
