A Gorgeous Excitement (2025)
Cynthia Weiner
"A mesmerizing story - both very much of its time and also timeless - of the young inhabitants of the (mostly) wealthy Upper East Side of NYC in the coked-up 1980s. A gripping, juicy, fascinating glimpse into a rarified world of a realm by now transformed."
