Review
'Janowitz is a fearless writer. Her details are quirky, her language is lean and her sentences sprint along with deceptive ease' New York Times 'The shrewd observation, the skewed invention are the gifts of a singular talent' Jay McInerney 'Brilliantly funny' Independent 'Laugh-out loud funny wonderful' Washington Post

3.0 out of 5 stars tres 80's , 17 Feb 2007
this is a book that has the time it was written in stamped over all it. Tama Janowitz is a contemporary of Brett Easton Ellis,and was also part of Andy Warhol's inner circle . She writes stories that covered similar misadventures to Easton Ellis. This book is more like a set of short stories that cover a interesting variety of women trying to make an honest dollar and get on with there ambitions lives in New York as is often in big cities some of the women end up in less glamorous surroundings than they had hoped for. They are stories in which the protagonists hit hard reality regardless of there dreams. It is funny and sympathetic.

3.0 out of 5 stars Amusing read, 27 Mar 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Slaves of New York (Paperback)
This was the first book I read by Ms. Janowitz and the story, for the most part, moves along at a nice pace. There are the various assortment of characters...some making numerous appearances, some only a solo appearance. I did appreciate her witty sense of humour.
