The bestselling novel that became an Oscar-winning film starring Elizabeth Taylor about New York's speakeasy generation

A masterpiece of American fiction and a bestseller upon its publication in 1935, BUtterfield 8 lays bareÂ with brash honesty the unspoken and often shocking truths that lurked beneath the surface of a society still reeling from the effects of the Great Depression. One Sunday morning, Gloria wakes up in a stranger's apartment with nothing but a torn evening dress, stockings, and panties. When sheÂ steals a fur coat from the wardrobe to wear home, sheÂ unleashes a seriesÂ of events that can only end inÂ tragedy. Inspired by true events, this novel caused a sensation on its publication for its frank depiction of the relationship between aÂ wild andÂ beautifulÂ young woman and a respectable, married man.
