I strongly recommend this book to all those who like dramas and who love analyzing the main characters.

The action is placed in Manhattan where a unnamed writer meets a young woman called Holly Golightly, with unusual habits and a strange story which she keeps secret.

Holly demonstrates that although she is not the most beautiful girl, she is still able to attract people to her by using that interior charm created by her cheered temper. She can be defined as a good and a bad person at the same time: bad for her kinky habits and good for her heart of gold. She calls herself crazy, but her type of craziness only makes people stick to her and love her more.

The moment when you finally understand why the book is called "Breakfast at Tiffany's" is the one when you find out Holly's biggest dream and the main purpose in life. The main idea of the book is expressed in Holly's words "Never love a wild thing, Mr. Bell,[…] If you let yourself love a wild thing, you'll end up looking at the sky." In this book, "the wild thing" is a metaphor for Holly, a person who listens only to her heart, breaks the rules and doesn't really care about the future. She is that kind of woman which can't be tamed and who is in a continual search for the place which she calls "home".

In the end Holly's destiny remains unclear and this leaves us many questions. Has she forgotten about her friend and that's the reason why she never writes to him? Where did her affairs bring her? Did she find that perfect place where she felt like at Tiffany's?
