Fifth Avenue, 5 A.M., by Sam Wasson

fifth ave.This book is a delightful departure from reality, like a trip to the drive-in-movies, or a Turner Classic Movie marathon. The no-frills writing allows the stars to take center stage: Audrey Hepburn, Truman Capote, Henry Mancini and Edith Head (to name a few). Get the inside scoop on the transformation from Capote’s racy protagonist to Hollywood’s glittering Holly Golightly. Like a fun, literary take on a 1960s film-star tabloid, this book is delicious enough to be gossip.
