Witness Radical Chic, Wolfe's witheringly objective account of a 1970 fund-raising party for the Black Panthers held in the exquisite Manhattan apartment of the composer Leonard Bernstein and his wife Felicia, during which the journalist detailed both the revolutionary rhetoric and the passing of hors d'oeuvres. Something of the same take-no-prisoners ethos ruled Bonfire. So what has changed during the past 11 years? Has Wolfe mellowed...
