When shy young heir Patrick is orphaned at the age of ten, the only family he has is his wealthy and eccentric aunt, a New York socialite named Mame. Prone to dramatic costumes, flights of fancy and expensive whims, Mame will raise Patrick the only way she knows how - with humour, mishaps, unforgettable friends and lots of love. From progressive schooling and Mame's search for a husband to her short-lived literary career and the puncturing of some of Patrick's romances, Auntie Mame is the most magnificent and hilarious work of love, style, wit and the life of a modern American.

4 (Muito bom)

Um ótimo livro, com diálogos inteligentes e extremamente bem humorados. Aquele tipo de leitura que cativa é faz querer mais.
Parece às vezes uma mistura entre Bonequinha de luxo e Cinderella, e o culto ao exagero e à afetação pode irritar.
Recomendável de qualquer forma.
