Fran Lebowitz
'The gold standard for intelligence, efficiency and humour. Now and forever' DAVID SEDARIS
'She's inexhaustible - her personality, her knowledge, her brilliance, most of all her humour' MARTIN SCORSESE
'The rare example of a legend living up to her own mythology. She really is THAT funny' HADLEY FREEMAN
Lebowitz turns her trademark caustic wit to the vicissitudes of life - from children ('rarely in the position to lend one a truly interesting sum of money') to landlords ('it is the solemn duty of every landlord to maintain an adequate supply of roaches'). And her attitude to work is the perfect antidote to our exhausting culture of self-betterment ('3.40pm. I consider getting out of bed. I reject the notion as being unduly vigorous. I read and smoke a bit more').

The gold standard for intelligence, efficiency and humour. Now and forever (David Sedaris)
She's inexhaustible - her personality, her knowledge, her brilliance, most of all her humour (Martin Scorsese)
Fran Lebowitz is the rare example of a legend living up to her own mythology. She really is THAT funny (Hadley Freeman)
In a world of humming, hawing, couching and obfuscating, there's nothing more refreshing than a dose of Fran Lebowitz (Caroline O’Donoghue)
Unique .... Lebowitz offers vocational guides for aspiring heiresses, popes, empresses; manuals for landlords; guidance to the rich who wish to meet the poor
The funniest woman in America
Despite now being over 40 years old, the essays still glitter, every bone-dry sentence pared down and packed with her unmistakeable personality (Hadley Freeman)
A forcefield of comic self-certainty in a world of anxious uncertainty
Right on the mark ... Among the things she hates ... baggage-claim areas, high tech, after-shave lotion, adults who roller skate, children who speak French, or anyone who is unduly tan
Hilarious ... an unlikely and perhaps alarming combination of Mary Hartman and Mary McCarthy.... To a dose of Huck Finn add some Lenny Bruce, Oscar Wilde and Alexis de Tocqueville, a dash of cabdriver, an assortment of puns, minced jargon, and top it off with smarty pants
'the most well-connected iconoclast since Dorothy Parker' (Jane Mulkerrins)
In a world of humming, hawing, couching and obfuscating, there's nothing more refreshing than a dose of Fran Lebowitz (Caroline O'Donoghue)
A marvellous raconteur, full of wit, wisdom and rebellion. Genuinely one of the funniest people in the world (Irenosen Okojie)
As witty, original, and impeccably discerning as the woman herself, The Fran Lebowitz Reader is a modern classic set to be read for generations to come (Otegha Uwagba)
One small issue is the occasional bit which works better in a book you read rather than listen to. But that problem is not big enough to knock a star off
