Summary
Originally published in 1935 and an immediate bestseller, "BUtterfield 8" was inspired by a news account of the body of a beautiful woman washing up on a Long Island beach. Her death was never resolved, but O'Hara seized upon the tragedy to imagine her down-and-out life in New York City in the early 1930s.
