Reading Breakfast at Tiffany’s by Truman Capote, reminds of that common girl that always appears in these New York based stories. That complicated mysterious girl that the narrator of the story is always curious about. She’s always preoccupied with her own secrets and either longs for a man by sleeping next to him on his bed for affection one day or wants to be alone and goes M.I.A  for weeks the next. I saw a similarity between the main character Holly Golightly and Daisy Buchanan from The Great Gatsby. It seems like New York, always attracts people that don’t know what they want, are often emotionally detached and very selfish to their own needs, at least that’s what I got from this story. Alcohol also seemed to play a huge role in this story and quite frankly I can’t imagine a good New York story without it. Imagine, a sober New York? I liked Capote’s story and his version of that “psycho” mysterious New York girl who finds solace in a Tiffany’s jewelery store.
