	Bonfire of the Vanities - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		This article is about the historical event; for the novel and film of the same name, see The Bonfire of the Vanities.
		Bonfire of the Vanities refers to an event on 7 February 1497 when followers of the priest Girolamo Savonarola collected and publicly burned thousands of objects in Florence, Italy, on the Shrove Tuesday festival.
		The focus of this destruction was on objects considered sinful, including vanity items such as mirrors, cosmetics, fine dresses, and even musical instruments.

	The Bonfire of the Vanities - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Bonfire of the Vanities is a 1987 novel by Tom Wolfe.
		The title is a reference to a real life event, the Bonfire of the Vanities, which took place in 1497, in Florence, Italy, when the city was under the rule of the Dominican priest Girolamo Savonarola.
		Wolfe did not intend his work to be a roman a clef; the characters in Bonfire are not fictionalized accounts of real-life figures.

	Amazon.com: The Bonfire of the Vanities: Books: Tom Wolfe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Regarded by some as the essential literary representation of 1980s America, "Bonfire of the Vanities" was written during the economic boom and urban crime waves of that decade and published almost as the stock market crashed in 1987.
		Bonfire of the Vanities has long been hailed as one the greatest (the greatest?) American novels of the 1980's, and its accolades bear little use repeating.
		This being said, Bonfire of the Vanities is a book about the dangers of a stratified society, in which an egregiously affluent echelon of the population ignores the clearly deteriorating circumstances of less-fortunates around them.

		The Bonfire of the Vanities by Tom Wolfe
		The only voice of wisdom in the film is the judge, played by Freeman, hot off his Oscar nominated performance in Driving Miss Daisy, who gives a convincing speech at the end of the movie.
		Even though the movie flopped in 1990 when it was released and today is considered one of the worst films ever made, I find Bonfire a truly unappreciated social commentary take on a dysfunctional system with ordinary people working as organizers of the system.
