One Fifth Avenue, the Art Deco beauty towering over one of Manhattan’s oldest and most historically hip neighborhoods, is a one-of-a-kind address, the sort of building you have to earn your way into—one way or another. For the women in Candace Bushnell’s new novel, One Fifth Avenue, this edifice is essential to the lives they’ve carefully established—or hope to establish. From the hedge fund king’s wife to the aging gossip columnist to the free-spirited actress (a recent refugee from L.A.), each person’s game plan for a rich life comes together under the soaring roof of this landmark building.

Acutely observed and mercilessly witty, One Fifth Avenue is a modern-day story of old and new money, that same combustible mix that Edith Wharton mastered in her novels about New York’s Gilded Age and F. Scott Fitzgerald illuminated in his Jazz Age tales. Many decades later, Bushnell’s New Yorkers suffer the same passions as those fictional Manhattanites from eras past: They thirst for power, for social prominence, and for marriages that are successful—at least to the public eye. But Bushnell is an original, and One Fifth Avenue is so fresh that it reads as if sexual politics, real estate theft, and fortunes lost in a day have never happened before.

From Sex and the City through four successive novels, Bushnell has revealed a gift for tapping into the zeitgeist of any New York minute and, as one critic put it, staying uncannily “just the slightest bit ahead of the curve.” And with each book, she has deepened her range, but with a light touch that makes her complex literary accomplishments look easy. Her stories progress so nimbly and ring so true that it can seem as if anyone might write them—when, in fact, no one writes novels quite like Candace Bushnell. Fortunately for us, with One Fifth Avenue, she has done it again.

读完《Sex and the City》的小说之后,去图书馆借了作者Candace Bushnell的另一本长篇小说《One Fifth Avenue》,今天终于读完了。在网络上搜了一下,这一本2008年出版的小说似乎还没有中文版。的确,这本书描写的内容对普通的中国读者来说似乎没有什么共鸣,甚至连书名也的确...

An interesting novel and personally thinking not worse than Sex and the City. This is a more complete story, a city story.

周六一口氣讀瞭一天,讀完瞭CANDACE BUSHNELL的新作。比起S&C來,這本書,更像中年人生活大全/指南。最後的結局都不錯,但不是童話明亮的那種,帶瞭很多無奈。不太喜歡。還是去讀劉易斯的愛麗絲好瞭。

很多年前,看瞭電視劇《口紅森林》還挺喜歡的,沒想到一季就被取消瞭。看到One Fifth齣自同一作者所以決定看看。果然,作者延續瞭一貫的風格,描寫紐約中上流社會的男人女人,對名利金錢的渴望和各種掙紮。整體感覺介於《Sex and the City》和《Gossip Girl》之間,故事的完整性和內涵勝一籌,但是確實沒給我帶來什麼新意。經久不變的主題:金錢和地位並不能於幸福劃等號,往上爬的路上充滿瞭艱辛和扭麯心智的痛苦,換來人前那一點點閃耀, 就要看你覺得值不值。
