A delightfully dishy novel about the all-time most impossible boss in the history of impossible bosses.
Andrea Sachs, a small-town girl fresh out of college, lands the job “a million girls would die for.” Hired as the assistant to Miranda Priestly, the high-profile, fabulously successful editor of Runway magazine, Andrea finds herself in an office that shouts Prada! Armani! Versace! at every turn, a world populated by impossibly thin, heart-wrenchingly stylish women and beautiful men clad in fine-ribbed turtlenecks and tight leather pants that show off their lifelong dedication to the gym. With breathtaking ease, Miranda can turn each and every one of these hip sophisticates into a scared, whimpering child.
THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA gives a rich and hilarious new meaning to complaints about “The Boss from Hell.” Narrated in Andrea’s smart, refreshingly disarming voice, it traces a deep, dark, devilish view of life at the top only hinted at in gossip columns and over Cosmopolitans at the trendiest cocktail parties. From sending the latest, not-yet-in-stores Harry Potter to Miranda’s children in Paris by private jet, to locating an unnamed antique store where Miranda had at some point admired a vintage dresser, to serving lattes to Miranda at precisely the piping hot temperature she prefers, Andrea is sorely tested each and every day—and often late into the night with orders barked over the phone. She puts up with it all by keeping her eyes on the prize: a recommendation from Miranda that will get Andrea a top job at any magazine of her choosing. As things escalate from the merely unacceptable to the downright outrageous, however, Andrea begins to realize that the job a million girls would die for may just kill her. And even if she survives, she has to decide whether or not the job is worth the price of her soul.
很早就想看看原著是什么样子的,看过电影后总想看看原著。 这几天正好有空,总算把这本书看过。 书和电影其实差不大多,就是在细节上有点出处! 我很感概,好莱坞 竟然可以把这么长的一本书 压缩成一个半小时的电影! 了不起的好莱坞 最近看了一些关于,为了工作而牺牲自己感情...
评分先看了电影,感觉很赞,所以在书店看到这本书的时候就毫不犹豫地买下了。结果发现,终于找到了不如电影好看的原著。主要是不喜欢作者的那种态度,在她的眼中,Miranda只是个已折磨人为唯一目标的变态老板,而作者几乎用了所有的篇幅叽叽歪歪地抱怨,冷嘲热讽自己的老板。 然而...
评分故事情节一般,我是先看了电影,再去看书的。情节没有大起大落,都是些鸡毛蒜皮的事情,小有小的精彩,因为我的工作也是助理,所以看了书颇有体会,幸好我还没碰上那么变态的老板。
评分我不得不承认,我常规的思维方式被电影里的这些东西一度带到海市蜃楼,不知所以,也无法评价电影本身的好坏,脑子里和女主角一样从一开始的不屑到迷恋在衣服包包里去了,甚至一度认为她的男朋友,朋友都没有体谅她,而且太否定时尚!看?!这就是这些华丽的东西对一个普通女人下...

一个朋友的爸爸是医生,据说这是他最喜欢的chick flick小说。
评分办公室生活。。。
评分I don't get Andy's actions and decisions...
评分在图书馆借回来假期看的,刚刚看完,故事写的很紧凑,我在想着都是她经历的吗?每天过的太紧张又太“充实”……最后和亚历克斯和好了吗?和克里斯蒂安怎么样了呢?
评分因电影看的小说。感觉还是电影改得更好,更丰富。
