5.0 out of 5 stars
take the other review off!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Butterfield Eight (Paperback)
I haven't read the book, but thanks to "A Reader from Bryn Mawr"'s review title, I don't have to. PLEASE do not display titles like "Did she fall? Did she jump? Was she pushed?" Wow, I can't wait to get to the end of the book now! The ending isn't going to be much of a surprise, is it?

I'm not telling you the answer, but I will tell you that the movie is wrong. ;-) "BUtterfield 8" is one of John O'Hara's most famous novels, and its fame is well-deserved. Gloria Wandrous, the novel's ill-fated heroine, is a testament to O'Hara's ability to create characters. She inspires pity, annoyance, admiration, and just about every other emotion you can imagine. "BUtterfield 8" reads smoothly and paints a vibrant picture of New York. It also marks the first appearance of O'Hara's fascinating alter-ego, Jimmy Malloy. A good read for those who have never heard of John O'Hara as well as those who have read all 14 novels and 400+ short stories.
