The Beautiful And The Damned Summary
| More from their fear of solitude than from any desire to go through the fuss and bother of entertaining, they filled the house with guests every week-end, and often on through the week. The week-end parties were much the same. When the three or four men invited had arrived, drinking was more or less in order, followed by a hilarious dinner and a ride to the Cradle Beach Country Club, which they had joined because it was inexpensive, lively if not fashionable, and almost a necessity for just such occasions as these. Moreover, it was of no great moment what one did there, and so long as the Patch party were reasonably inaudible, it mattered little whether or not the social dictators of Cradle Beach saw the gay Gloria imbibing cocktails in the supper room at frequent intervals during the evening. |

| A gripping morality tale, a meditation on love and money, and an acute social statement, The Beautiful and the Damned is a semi-autobiographical depiction of a glamorous, reckless Manhattan couple and their spectacular spiral into tragedy and despair. Newly designed and typeset in a modern 6-by-9-inch format by Waking Lion Press. |
