THE SUMMER READ
Selected by Christopher Niquet.“Trio” by Aram Saroyan.
“What happens when your father is writer William Saroyan and your mother socialite Carol Matthau? In the case of Aram, a darn good fictionalized memoir.
Three young women meet in 1940s champaign bohemia of New York, one is the author's mother, the second her best friend Oona O’Neill, daughter of Eugene
and soon-to-be wife of Charlie Chaplin and the third the Poor Little Rich Girl Gloria Vanderbilt, the beauty with a string of complicated marriages (and affairs).
A fantastic evocation of friendship with guest appearances by JD Salinger, Truman Capote and Sidney Lumet.”
Christopher Niquet is an author and co-founder of 65CPW a portrait portfolio about people and their relationship with New York City.
