5.0 out of 5 stars Stream-of-consciousness, Warhol-style, 28 Feb 1999
By A Customer
If you ever wanted to know what the New York state of mind was in the 1970s and 1980s, then this book is for you. Andy Warhol lived at the center of the "beautiful people" in the New York club/celebrity scene, from his Factory to Studio 54 and seemingly everywhere else. From hustlers and porn stars to the Hollywood glitterati and political movers and shakers, Warhol dictated it all to his diarist, Pat Hackett, who distilled it from 20,000 pages into this huge book. You will be shocked, you will be amused and you will see why there was only one Andy Warhol -- the artist and pop culturist who took a "New York" minute and turned it into 15 minutes of bizarre fame. Don't miss out on this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Gossip and More Gossip about the fabulous 70s and 80s, 2 Aug 1997
By A Customer
Fascinating tales from the horses mouth. Andy dictated his diary to Pat Hackett at 9:30 am daily from whereever he was in the world. It started out as an expense account diary, but it turned into gossipy dish about the wild times in the Warhol world of the 70s and 80s. One can almost hear Andy speaking the words in his low, whiney voice. Some parts are very very funny, other parts make you want to cry. Andy was a lost soul and it comes through very clearly in his quest for acceptance. This book is large, trimmed down from 20,000 original diary pages, but still too large for a quick read. It almost takes extra time to read the diaries, a lot cannot be absorbed all at once. It is best ingested and enjoyed in small doses. It is really a delight and full of naughty fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, 10 Nov 1998
By A Customer
Fun to read, and a book that shows that legends-in-their-own-time (like Warhol, Jagger, etc.) have daily annoyances in their lives, too. Warhol has a sense of humor that makes this fun to read. One thing I think a lot of readers will wonder about in this book is, Why did Warhol and his successful friends put up with Halston's side-kick Victor Hugo? Victor Hugo was merely a male prostitute that Halston used, then befriended and lived with. And Hugo became part of this fashionable group, but all he ever does is sponge off Halston, insult people and be rude and destructive...But still no one kicks him out of the group? Why did Warhol and his friends put up with this jerk?
