Fran Lebowitz
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.

"Like if Oscar the Grouch had an editor, publisher, and a large preference for linguine with clams. Even that doesn't do Lebowitz's disgruntled charm justice. Highly recommend her essays for lasting laughs. "
