Breakfast at Tiffany’s
Holly Golightly is a glittering socialite mover and shaker: generally upwards, sometimes sideways and, every now and then, down. She's up all night drinking cocktails and breaking hearts. She's a shoplifter, a delight, a drifter, a tease. In short, an icon. Truman Capote's most famous work, Breakfast at Tiffany's is the ultimate ode to dreamers.

But the mysterious Scarlet Pimpernel – along with his band of English gentlemen – is outwitting the revolutionaries.

But can he guard his true identity forever, or will he give his life for his cause?
