—New Yorker

Customer Reviews
Fashion Vendetta
I may have had unrealistic expectations. I thought I'd bought a fiction based on fact murder mystery that would give me some insight into Cannes Film Festival while entertaining me with a suspenseful plot. What I actually bought was a long and continuous overstatement of the obvious – yes it’s true that fashion is choke full of shallow folks, capitalizing on youth and don’t care at what cost. The author spent so much time and detail belaboring the pretentious that I lost track of the weak plot. This was an assault on my ears.
