nabee 's review for:
The Vanity Fair Diaries: 1983 - 1992
by Tina Brown
Tina is so good at recreating what the power house of 80s Conde Nast was like - I'm so happy she kept a record of her time there (no alcohol probably being the best bet). While it's a bit like a riches to riches story - and can sometimes be repetitivea- her honesty about being a young woman achieving so much at a young age is inspiring - I really appreciated her feelings about success in the city, having a calm spot by the sea, growing a family and earning what she feels she deserves. She knew from so early on what the book should look like, and throughout the years is hammering through those ideals. After reading past perspectives from the likes of Didion or Dunne it's fun to get another perspective on what life was like in those friendship groups. The stuff on Boris Johnson and Trump is so prescient... Although not on Roseanne Barr 😉
