Return to Peyton Place

The sequel overall had the same pleasant flow, familiar characters and some new debauchery including lesbianism (though gays didn't come off well here -- a few too many references to "fairies"). Interesting thoughts on publishing and translating books to films. Allison (major focus) and her family were pretty boring here though. Few references also anachronistic (book takes place c. 1946, not early '50s with Kinsey, t.v. and Monroe). Decent overall.
