Tatiana Kh z_l — the coldplay of books

Aryan Yoba aryanyobazr — A little confusing to read. Albert stated that some of the book would be written from McQuaid's view which made sense but was awkwardly done. It would have been better to write it first person from him.

Dicapria Dicapria dicapria — Towles, Amor. RULES OF CIVILITY. (2011). ****. This is an excellent first novel by this author, whose day job is at an investment firm in New York. It is a retrospective account of a year in the life of Katey (Katy) Kontent, a young woman who, in 1938, was just starting out on her career as a publisher’s assistant. It is told from the vantage point of 1966, when she and her then husband, Val, are taking in an exhibit at MOMA of a series of photographs by Walker Evans, taken of people in a subway car using his secret camera. Two of the photos were of an old acquaintence of Katy, Theodore (Tinker) Grey, taken about a year apart. In the earlier shot, Tinker looked very prosperous, wearing an expensive overcoat and what appeared to be a custom-tailored suit beneath it. The photo from a year later showed him in a tattered overcoat that looked as if it came from The Salvation Army. The photos shock Katy into a mode of remembrance, when she and Tinker and a girlfriend, Evelyn (Eve), were an item in the city. They were all young and gay and ready to face life on their own terms. On top of it all, Tinker had money, and wasn’t afraid to spend it on the two women and himself in pursuit of all the pleasures New York had to offer. The three of them enjoyed each others’ company and were relatively care free. Things began to change for the trio, however, and life intruded upon their relationship. The story of these changes takes through New York’s pre-war club and restaurant scene and into the lives of the very rich. It seems that these very rich had their own separate agendas. The author provides excellent characterization of his three main protagonists, along with pitch perfect dialog. Recommended.
