For the women in Candace Bushnell's new novel, \u003ci\u003eOne Fifth Avenue\u003c\/i\u003e, 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, \u003ci\u003eOne Fifth Avenue\u003c\/i\u003e 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 \u003ci\u003eOne Fifth Avenue\u003c\/i\u003e is so fresh that it reads as if sexual politics, real estate theft, and fortunes lost in a day have never happened before. From \u003ci\u003eSex and the City\u003c\/i\u003e 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 \u003ci\u003eOne Fifth Avenue\u003c\/i\u003e, she has done it again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCandace Bushnell\u003c\/b\u003e is the internationally bestselling novelist whose first book, \u003ci\u003eSex and the City\u003c\/i\u003e, was the basis for the HBO hit series and blockbuster movies.
