A brilliant collection of acerbic, wisecracking and hilarious essays from New York icon Fran Lebowitz, star of Martin Scorsese's hit Netflix series, Pretend It's a City. Lebowitz turns her trademark caustic wit to the vicissitudes of life - from children to landlords. And her attitude to work is the perfect antidote to our exhausting culture of self-betterment. "The gold standard for intelligence, efficiency and humour. Now and forever". David Sedaris.
