If you happen to be in a career situation where waking up
everyday to cater to the whim of your
devil-incarnate
boss is the highlight of
your day, then this book is for you. True, it deals entirely on
fashion and
other vanity-laden stuff this world has to offer, but it could touch your heart
if you let it. Plus, it's not so bad to be acquainted with beautiful things
like Jimmy Choo and Manolo Blahnik shoes, or couture dresses from Chanel,
Prada, and Loius Vuitton. It's actually liberating to know that even those
people with jobs "a million girls
would die for" do also live a pathetic and hellish life in
exchange for so-called prestige in the publishing industry. That is the life of
Andrea Sachs, fresh out of
college, who got the job as Miranda
Priestley's assistant, the editor-in-chief of Runway, the no. 1 fashion magazine, a
job "a million girls would die for"…
…And it's up to her how she can cope and just suck it all
up as long as she can, destroying the few good relationships she has but still
emerging victorious towards the end. This book shows its intended readers that
there is life after fashion, beauty and glamour. For people like Andrea Sachs,
it's up to you where to draw the line. In the end, the opportunities can be
boundless.
