Title: Good story
Review: In a way it's hard to believe this short story is what inspired the iconic movie. Especially, since Tiffany's plays even a smaller part here than the movie. It was hard to get Audrey Hepburn out of mind while reading this, because this book takes place twenty years earlier-during the WWII. All material written in that time was always so serious (The greatest generation-they say.) that it was hard to picture such a flighty and worldly personalty for that time. Though I have no doubt that it must be true. It just takes an adjustment. Overall, it's a good story. I wish I could say the same for the three additional stories in this book. To me those, House of Flowers, Diamond Guitar and a Christmas Memory were a waste of time and a disappointment. But this book is still worth the purchase price for Breakfast at Tiffany's alone.
