Product Description: With its uncensored observations of the mating rituals of Manhattan's elite, "Sex and the City" created a sensation as an international bestseller. Now the "Sharon Stone of journalism" triumphantly returns to the playgrounds of the beautiful and powerful as she brings together the stories of four modern women of New York's new millennium. National TV & radio coverage.

From the Publisher: Now, with the novel Four Blondes, Bushnell triumphantly returns to the playgrounds of the beautiful and powerful -- once again capturing the zeitgeist and mores of our era like no other writer. Four Blondes brings together the stories of four modern women to render a vivid portrait of New York at the millennium. Writing in the tradition of Edith Wharton -- with characters who could have come out of a Jacqueline Susann novel -- Bushnell chronicles the characters' romantic intrigues, liaisons, betrayals, and victories. (...) Studded with her trademark wit and stiletto-heel-sharp insights, Four Blondes is dark, true, and compulsively readable. It's destined to be a hit among the author's legions of loyal fans and many new devotees.

Library Journal:Do blondes have more fun? As author of the very popular Sex and the City, Bushnell ought to know, and judging by the four main characters in her collection of loosely linked stories, they don t. Despite spectacular hair, Calista Flockhart bodies, Manolo Blahnik shoes, Dolce & Gabbana apparel, and their careers, they re gripped by paranoia, dissatisfied with their lives, yearning to get married, or involved in unfulfilling relationships with spectacular boors. (...). Sexy, funny, tragic, shallow, and thoughtful, this is a real treat for grownup readers.

Publishers Weekly:The author whose name is synonymous with her novel Sex and the City weighs in again with four loosely linked tales that form a sexually charged and withering analysis of how New York's--and London's--women work feverishly at their relationships, meanwhile trying desperately to make their names. (...) Mercilessly satirical, Bushnell's scathing insights and razor wit are laced with an understanding of this universal human fear, and they inspire fear and pity in the reader.

Il libro è un racconto a puntate sulla società degli anni Novanta che descrive con spudorata verità la vita sessuale, i vizi, i sentimenti maligni e sotterranei della high society americana e si avvale delle ricerche fatte 'sul campo' dall'autrice in prima persona. Per scrivere i suoi pezzi, la Bushnell ha fatto di tutto: ha condotto indagini sulla vita sessuale delle donne sposate, ha partecipato ai party più ambiti e si è inserita come una spia negli ambienti presi di mira. Risultato: il libro sulla vita, il sesso e gli amori dei nostri giorni.
