Breakfast at Tiffany's

Holly is an interesting character in the book. She's tough, elegant, kind and crooked. She's flamboyant, yet is troubled by such surroundings at times.
To relate to to general theme of the class, she's an outsider of NYC, and here she is experiencing what cannot be described. I've lived in New York all my life, and as we read along I can get input into the heads of those whom surround me. Many fellow students aren't from New York and are having a difficult time situating themselves here. Holly seems to be fitting in just fine, from the outer looks of it, though she's a little torn I feel.
Someone wrote in a previous Blog that New York doesn't really have any outsiders, because outsiders is what makes New York, New York. And I thought that to be so true. Its such a great way to see it.
