[tps_title] 1. Sex and the City by Candace Bushnell [/tps_title]
We all know the TV show and film, but Sex and the City was originally a book by Candace Bushnell. Sex and the City is a collection of essays by Bushnell based on her and her friends’ lifestyles.
Wildly funny, unexpectedly poignant, wickedly observant, Sex and the City blazes a glorious, drunken cocktail trail through New York, as Candace Bushnell, columnist and social critic par excellence, trips on her Manolo Blahnik kitten heels from the Baby Doll Lounge to the Bowery Bar. An Armistead Maupin for the real world, she has the gift of assembling a huge and irresistible cast of freaks and wonders, while remaining faithful to her hard core of friends and fans: those glamorous, rebellious, crazy single women, too close to forty, who are trying hard not to turn from the Audrey Hepburn of BREAKFAST AT TIFFANY’S into the Glen Close of FATAL ATTRACTION, and are – still – looking for love.
