Radical Chic and Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers by Tom Wolfe

Radical Chic & Mau-Mauing the Flak Catchers is classic Wolfe, a funny, irreverent, and delicious (The Wall Street Journal) dissection of class and status by the master of New Journalism

On the night of January 4, 1970, Maestro and Mrs. Leonard Bernstein threw a bash in their thirteen-room park Avenue pad to raise money for the Black Panthers Defense Fund. New York society will probably never play Lady Bountiful in quite the same way again, because among the Beautiful People present was Tom Wolfe, pop sociologist and parajournalist supreme.--Book World
