Title: The funniest book I ever read.
Product review: Maybe the book was especially amusing to me because I live in Hollywood. Those who live here want it to seem "fabulous", whereas it's just another place. DeVries nails it in her inimitable snowball-in-hell style, analyzing the scene down to a pile of detritus. Her main character, Alex, struggles to maintain her integrity, a characteristic unheard of her adoptive community. Easier to read than Fran Leibowitz, but equally insightful and ironic in dealing with the glamour for which we're supposed to yearn.
