Review
If there is one subject with which William Norwich, gossip columnist for the New York Observer and editor at large for Vogue, is familiar, it is the wacky life of a New York gossip columnist. So it makes sense that Norwich choose that life as the launching point for his first novel. From there the book takes a sharp turn: columnist/protagonist Julian Orr decides at age 37 to learn to drive, enrolls in a driving school, clashes with his driving instructor, and then takes a wild ride in the netherworld of famous people outside of Manhattan.
