The title novella is the story of Holly Golightly: bawd, hussy, tramp, harlot, slut, trollop, whore, prostitute, courtesan, strumpet, quean, slattern, wench, concubine, or is she? Cocotte may describe her best. At any rate, this is one of the best character studies that youll find anywhere, even though she is still somewhat of a paradox. As a extra, you get three short stories that were previously published only in periodicals: typical New Yorker magazine stuff that you can well afford to skip: House of Flowers, A Diamond Guitar, and A Christmas Memoir.
