New York Night Thoughts and Winked Observations
A July 15 diary of New York scenes and people from 1932, noting Sam Harris, Tallulah Bankhead, and Lucy Virginia Long among colorful figures. It riffs on vaudeville names, socialites, Broadway gloss, a Sing Sing warden cameo, and lingering imagery of hansom cabs and city life.
