One Fifth Avenue

Another look at the tough and tender women of New York City from Candace Bushnell, the author of Sex and the City, Trading Up, and Lipstick Jungle. In One Fifth Avenue, Bushnell tells the intertwined stories of five women at one swanky Manhattan address. One Fifth is The Building the chicest, the hottest, the one with the best pedigree, the one with all the most interesting people. And within its gorgeous, thick, pre-war walls, fortunes fall and rise in the early days of the new millennium. As in her previous novels, Bushnell turns a gimlet eye on the social and sexual politics of elite New Yorkers and taps uncannily into the zeitgeist of our changing times.
