Description: The Fran Lebowitz Reader (SIGNED 1994 Softcover Edition)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.A witty, sometimes curmudgeonly, often helpful look at various fads, crazes, morals, fashions, and mores in America today ranges from comments on good weather to a pontifical guide for the truly ambitious.Fran Lebowitz is an American author and public speaker. Lebowitz is known for her sardonic social commentary on American life as filtered through her New York City sensibilities. Some reviewers have called her a modern-day Dorothy Parker.“I could read this book again and again and again and again.” - Nicole, GoodReadsSoftcover / Vintage Books / 1994 / Very Good Condition / Inscribed 'For Ken, Your Pal Fran Lebowitz' (with a drawing of an unhappy face smoking a cigarette - see picture) and Signed by Fran Lebowitz
