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.

You remind me of myself when I was your age. Here is a rule of thumb: if you are not sure what you will be like ten years from now, just observe your colleagues or your boss, and very probably, you will become one of them. Andrea’s last straw is not Mir...
评分文/洁尘 不奇怪《时尚女摩头》的小说和它衍生的电影会成为一个噱头。时尚——那些字眼,普拉达、古弛、香奈尔、路易威登、芬迪……这些字眼本身就具有一种致幻的效果,它代表着市面上通行的关于华丽、高雅、昂贵、少数、出众、脱俗等诸多的标签,而那些标签代言着人们想象的完...
评分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 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。
没什么文学价值,就是作者在发泄自己的怨气吧
评分同名电影。
评分语言非常幽默,比电影好很多
评分没什么文学价值,就是作者在发泄自己的怨气吧
评分花了N个早上听完这本书,有一种“不停抱怨”的感觉。和电影相差甚大啊~
