Her Infinite Variety — Louis Auchincloss

HER INFINITE VARIETY spins the charmingly wicked tale of Clara Hoyt, perhaps one of the most colorful characters in the Auchincloss oeuvre. Employing uncommon savvy and elan, she charts a wildly entertaining course to the inner sanctum of New York's aristocracy and to the boardrooms of the publishing world. With characteristic urbanity and wit, Auchincloss offers a larger comment on what some women did to get ahead in the middle of the twentieth century.
