Splendids by Jean Genet - A Reading Overview
T1591297733
Jean, Scott and Bravo are in a fix. Trapped on the penultimate floor of Splendid's, Paris's most exquisite luxury hotel, with only a radio set and their tommyguns for company. Food, water, and alcohol are in perilously short supply. The cops are preparing to shimmy in through the windows. The press are gathered outside. The Blaze of Glory boys have pulled off the most glamorous heist of the decade - almost. Their only hope of survival is the beautiful, young heiress they have taken hostage. A perfect bargaining chip - except, someone has accidentally killed her. Can the gang hatch a scheme to buy themselves an extra couple of hours of freedom?
