Breakfast at Tiffany’s
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, an icon. Truman Capote's most famous work, Breakfast at Tiffany's is the ultimate ode to dreamers.
'The most perfect writer of my generation ... I would not have changed two words of Breakfast at Tiffany's' Norman Mailer
Far from the Madding Crowd
The Awakening
This candid portrayal of a woman who refuses to accept her allotted role as wife and mother caused an outcry when it was published in 1899. It is the story of Edna Pontellier, who spends the summer on the Gulf of Mexico with her businessman husband and her two sons. When an illicit romance awakens unfamiliar ideas and longings in Edna, she discovers a new identity for herself, but cannot hope for understanding in the stifling attitudes of Louisiana society.
