Notes From Your Bookseller
From the gem that is Fran Lebowitz, this volume brings together Metropolitan Life and Social Studies, two culturally relevant narratives with that token sense of humor that is both hilarious and stark. At times a rant, at times an observation, this is socially relevant commentary from a voice we love to hear.
In the vein of Lebowitz's acclaimed Netflix limited series, Pretend It's a City—The Fran Lebowitz Reader brings together two of the famed author's bestsellers, Metropolitan Life and Social Studies.
In "elegant, finely honed prose" (The Washington Post Book World), Lebowitz limns the vicissitudes of contemporary urban life—its fads, trends, crazes, morals, and fashions. By turns ironic, facetious, deadpan, sarcastic, wry, wisecracking, and waggish, Fran Lebowitz is always wickedly entertaining.
