I am having so much fun reading
Bonfire of the Vanities. Tom Wolfe's writing is fast-paced and often funny, and I haven't read a good crime drama in a while. And perhaps best of all, the story is set in the 80s, which means I get to picture fun visuals like these:
 |
| Green letters on a black screeen? I remember you. |
 |
| The protagonist calls himself a Master of the Universe. Thankfully he wears a suit and not tiny briefs. |
 |
| The description of the socialites' clothing is a-mazing. Only eclipsed by descriptions of their shoulder pads. |
So can't wait to figure out what will become the "what were they thinking???" trends of today.
My vote is definitely cuffed sandals. What's yours?

I know some of these novels will incite strong opinions, but please remember to be nice. Violators may be prosecuted, persecuted, and thought to be A Mean Person.
