The Price of Illusion PROLOGUE
“A parade of stars and styles . . . . Think of anyone who had cachet in the world of movies, literature or fashion starting in 1970 or so, and chances are good that they pop up in this book. . . . Buck has been a fabulous Zelig in the world of memoirs.” (The New York Times)
“Relentlessly candid and often absorbing account of a complex life spent in and out of the fashion spotlight." (Kirkus Reviews)
“Lapidary. . . elegant. . . psychedelic. . . brilliant.” (Publishers Weekly (starred review))
“[A] lush, charming memoir.” (People)
"If you loved The Devil Wears Prada, you’ll adore Joan Juliet Buck’s The Price of Illusion, her deliciously written memoir of her golden life in Hollywood and at Paris Vogue, which became more and more about running as fast as she could until, in one of the best blow-by-blows of being fired you’ll ever read, she finally began to figure out what matter.” (Elle)
"Fans of high fashion and celebrity culture will enjoy this insider account."
(Library Journal)
“Ms. Buck has been everywhere, done everything — the most delicious...pages I’ve read in months....sure to ravish the best-seller lists.” (Liz Smith, NewYorkSocialDiary.com)
“Joan Juliet Buck had lived a more brilliant, stranger, more glamorous, sadder, happier, richer, poorer life by the age of twenty-five than most of us do in three times that long and then she went right on living it and then she wrote it down. I'm a sucker for good, smart writing and this book is nothing but good, smart writing and great stories. Terrific stuff." (Salman Rushdie, bestselling author of Two Years Eight Months and Twenty-Eight Nights)
“One knows from the opening paragraph that one is in the presence of a truly original, and compelling, voice; and that the scope of the book to come will be both ravishingly large and, at the same time, rife with perfect, telling details.” (Michael Cunningham, bestselling author of A Wild Swan and The Hours)
“Brimming over with voluptuous details, this is delicious writing—intelligent, provocative, ironic, and so compulsively readable I simply could not put it down.” (Patricia Bosworth, New York Times bestselling author of Diane Arbus)
