Fifth Avenue, 5 A.M.: Audrey Hepburn, Breakfast at Tiffany's, and the Dawn of the Modern Woman by Sam Wasson
4.0
Rating: ☕️☕️☕️☕️
I really enjoyed this one. I’ve never been a movie or movie star fanatic, and Sam Wasson’s book served as a quick, entertaining intro to the host of colorful characters that played a role, literally and inspirationally, in crafting Breakfast at Tiffany’s, both the book and iconic film.
Wasson’s crisp weaving of accounts and anecdotes did a fabulous job drawing me in and teasing me toward a list of bygone Hollywood rabbit holes - longer TBR list, including the OG BaT, which I didn’t know was a book FIRST!
