Recensione:

Mary Birdsong is the perfect narrator for this comic romp around the New York publishing scene. When boss-from-hell Vivian Grant begins to have speech paterns reminiscent of Claire Truman's future mother-in-law, listners are all but doubled over with laughter. Claire, the young protagonist, is unsure of herself, sounding peppy and innocent one minute, nervous and chiding herself the next. Musical interludes add their own comic twist. Theres' good material for Birdsong to work with. Clark meshes literary history (entitling chapters after classics: The Bell Jar and The Sound and the Fury) with memorable sound bites from high-tech lifestyle. The full book might be overkill, but this abridged version can't helpbut delight anyone who's ever fantasized about working in New York or brushed up against social climbers. (Audio File 2007)
