People either love or hate him but Toby Young has written an hilarious account of his five years in New York after being offered a dream job at Vanity Fair. He desperately wants to make an impression and delight in all the luxuries of this high-powered social world but instead he manages to offend most of the people he comes in to contact with, although you can’t help feeling that is because of their own lack of humour and also their complete belief that they are the most important people in the world. Some great anecdotes and a brilliant social commentary on New York life you will be squirming in your seat and laughing out loud.
