Description
Dive into the mating habits of privileged New Yorkers in this hilarious collection of Bushnell's newspaper columns that inspired the hit HBO series. Sex and the City is a fantastic and sometimes terrifying foray into the hearts, minds, and mating habits of modern-day New Yorkers. Traveling in packs from lavish parties to high-end clubs, Bushnell's vividly candid characters live out the never-ending search for the perfect relationship. Bushnell's firsthand commentary on the behavior of the rich and famous is by turns witty and shocking, and always boldly true. In these pages you will meet "Carrie," the young writer looking for love in all the wrong places; "Samantha Jones," the successful proto-cougar who approaches sex just like a man; and "Mr. Big," the captain of industry who jumps from one bed to the next. Equal parts soap opera, gossip page, sociological study, and dating manual, Sex and the City, Candace Bushnell's former New York Observer column, has attracted a cult following and been adapted into two major motion pictures and one of the most popular TV series of our time. This is the groundbreaking work that both decoded and shaped a culture and a generation. Praise for Sex and the City "An Armistead Maupin-like canvas tinged with a liberal smattering of Judith Krantz." -Publishers Weekly "Fascinating . . . . Hilarious . . . . Welcome to the cruel planet that is Manhattan." -The Los Angeles Times "Bushnell is a deft writer, possessing a sly sense of humor and sharp insight into human behavior." -People
