Lauren Weisberger (born March 28, 1977 in Scranton, Pennsylvania) is an American novelist and author of the 2003 bestseller The Devil Wears Prada, a roman à clef of her time as a put-upon assistant to Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.
In 2003, Weisberger authored her first book, The Devil Wears Prada, which spent six months on the New York Times Best Seller List. The book provides a semi-fictional but highly critical view of the Manhattan elite's empty obsession with materialism and fashion. As of July 2006, The Devil Wears Prada was the best selling mass market softcover book in the nation.
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.
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...

评分摘自《博客大巴》 Lauren Weisberger不能算得上是一位好作家。她总共出过三本书,有两本被评为了年度最差。唯一幸免的那本就是人尽皆知的《the Devil wears Prada》。在这本书里,Lauren带着一肚子的抱怨和怒气,本打算着把一盆狗血痛痛快快地泼在那个常年梳着Bob头型的...
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...
评分得看《The devil wears prada》还是06年的事,走的是传统的好莱坞风格:丑小鸭变白天鹅的传统故事(也是安娜.海瑟薇最擅长的角色);后妈一般的反面人物(可怜的梅尔.斯特里普);还有必有的几个角色的设置:死忠的倒霉鬼大助——艾米丽和安迪的精神导师——奈吉儿。他们分别站...
上学时看
评分故事很好玩儿 跟电影不一样哦 但是装订太烂了 看的慢腾腾= =
评分真是不能再爱电影了,小说玩儿蛋去罢!
评分跟书比,电影就是个p
评分看她开着米兰达的车,把烟烫在GUCCI裤子那段酣畅淋漓的章节,实在感觉作者有去NEW YORKER的文笔功底。
