| 內容簡介： |
In 1995, high-flying British journalist Toby Young left
London for New York to become a contributing editor at Vanity Fair.
Other Brits had taken Manhattan - Alistair Cooke, Tina Brown, Anna
Wintour - so why couldn''t he? Surely, it would only be a matter of
time before the Big Apple was in the palm of his hand. But things
did not go according to plan. Within the space of two years he was
fired from Vanity Fair, banned from the most fashionable bar in the
city and couldn''t get a date for love or money. Even the local AA
group wanted nothing to do with him. How To Lose Friends
Alienate People is Toby Young''s hilarious account of the five years
he spent steadily working his way down the New York food chain,
from glossy magazine editor to crash-test dummy for interactive sex
toys. But it''s not just a collection of self-deprecating anecdotes.
It''s also a seditious attack on the culture of celebrity from
inside the belly of the beast. Not since Bonfire of the Vanities
has the New York A-list been so mercilessly lampooned - and it all
really happened!
