Glamour fiction

[EmptySeraph]

I'm interested in fiction books that speak about the many orgies, excesses, ecstasies and deceptions that loomed up in the mind of those very rich and privileged people that indulged in all kind of extravagances from 1920 all the way up to around 1950. Books about the Roaring Twenties, the Jazz Age or anything similar. In New York, Los Angeles, Paris, Rome, Madrid or any other metropole. Something akin to Fitzgerald's novels or Capote's ''Breakfast at Tiffany's''. Very expensive and elegant clothes, fancy locations, exquisite food, French perfumes, luxury cars, love affairs, drugs, tears sunk in exotic cocktails, lights, music and all the other elements that are characteristic for the adventures of the rich of this age. If there's anything that also speaks about artists, about The Lost Generation or anything, all the better. Any suggestion?

One might be Patrick Dennis, "Auntie Mame". It was written in 1955, but describes events around the depression. I only skimmed the book, but I saw two versions of the movies made on the book.

Just looked over the book on the internet, and I think it's somehow rather humoristic. I'm not really interested in that part. I am, instead, searching for some tragedies, for some decayed lives and for trajectories that present the evolution from star to loser. I don't want happy stories. Perhaps the French avant-garde should have some of these...
