SWANS OF FIFTH AVENUE

Centered on two dynamic, complicated, and compelling protagonists -- Truman Capote and Babe Paley -- this book is steeped in the glamour and perfumed and smoky atmosphere of New York's high society.

Replete with gossip, scandal, betrayal, and a vibrant cast of real-life supporting characters, readers will be seduced by this startling new look at the infamous society swans.
