Gay Talese's $200 Frank Sinatra Book

Author will read tonight at the Gagosian Gallery from a most handsome 1966 Esquire article spinoff.

A Christmas season miracle? Not quite.

Nevertheless, when a monthly magazine article creeping up on 50 can, in this digital age, be expanded into a further showcase of the print form, it’s worth celebrating. And that’s just what Gay Talese will be doing tonight at New York’s Gagosian Gallery. The book, Frank Sinatra Has a Cold, based on Talese’s 1966 Esquire article of the same name, has a Taschen limited print run of 5000 and a price tag of $200.
