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.
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.
既然都快满1年了为什么还是没忍住,关键时刻掉链子啊。。 我并不觉得那句“看到了年轻时候的我”有什么问题, 哈哈或许我就是被虐+工作狂吧, 喜欢这种激烈的生活, 如果有机会也想感受。
评分看了电影兴冲冲跑去买书的,却发现书和电影的区别太大了。 作者的文字水平就不说了,书中的女主角完全不像电影里那么聪明可爱,不仅办事能力素质很差,而且自始至终没完没了地抱怨抱怨抱怨,对几乎每个人都那么恶毒。不仅如此,虽然处处宣传着自己多么纯真高贵,却面不改色地...
评分LAUREN WEISBERGER,绝不仅仅是此书序言中“初出茅庐的小说家”那么简单,在撰写此书之前,她是全球最有影响力时尚杂志《Vogue》美国版的总编辑 Anna Wintour的助理。而此本小说描写的则是一位刚刚大学毕业的女学生 Andrea Sachs获得了一份在顶尖时尚杂志《Runway》为堪称暴君...
评分从衣柜里随便一拎就是Prada,抽屉里堆满了Hermes白丝巾供你抽取,丢了也无妨; 只要打个电话二十五秒后就有一双价值数千美元、合你尺寸的鞋子奉上,当然免费; 价值数万美元的手提包里,胡乱塞着Bvlgari香水、Hermes笔记本,还有一条LV的狗项圈…… 出国出差,所有同事会组...

小说远比电影要细节和具体,电影拍的相对柔和,结局的处理也做了一些美化,女魔头远比电影里要可恶,加上主角本人,其实也不讨喜,当然是在某段时间内。 有时候人就是容易被眼前的景象迷惑而忘记了重要的人与事,认清这些事实,也总是需要付出些代价。
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。
评分跟书比,电影就是个p
评分再去找电影看看
