I think the best thing about this book might be the hilarious cover. Sorry Tama.'Slaves of New York' is a linked series of short stories which, while not adding up to a novel, are observant and fun takes on the art scene in New York City in the 1980s. Many of the characters are met once and never he...
Hmmm...what to say about this book. Well...it was sexy. It bounced around a lot so you had to keep a timeline in your head of what she was doing and when. I really liked Peyton, and at times identified with her. All around, I liked the book - didn't LOVE it, but liked it.
Basically a retelling of Edith Wharton's House of Mirth, done for today, Bret Easton Ellis-style. Satirically depressing!
