This book was completely engaging, it was well written by Skip Hollandsworth. It makes me wish more books were written about this time period. I found myself wanted to go and check out all of the sites, most of which are now parking garages.

Some classic quotes, it was funny for the time it came out. It was a hilarious movie for that time period. It’s was offbeat and independent (0 more)
Has not held up well. Has been played to much to be funny any more. At this point it is more annoying then funny (0 more)

"One of my favourite rewatches, a fantastic odyssey. It doesn't let up! I love stories that are just the passage of a group of people through a concentrated period of time and this is a strong dose of that. The gang costumes and the whole look of New York are incredible."

Rather formulaic period novel
Another period tale of a woman with little power. She seems to run from one man to another in order for survival.

Connie Reid marries Clifford Chatterley, the scion of an aristocratic line. After a month's honeymoon, he is sent to war, and returns paralysed from the waist down, impotent. She becomes increasingly isolated after he husband becomes more and more frustrated with his disability. At which point she becomes acquainted with - wait for it - the groundskeeper/gardener. They have a tumultuous love affair as a result.

I think this was rather generic and typical of novels at the time such as Gustave Flaubert's Madame Bovary. Expect affairs and dramatic leading ladies.
