"What a thrill that Cat Marnell-one of our best living documentarians of addiction and the glamorous frivolities of New York-has at last given her fans a novel. A riveting portrait of the writer as a young woman, a book about the redemptive power of art itself, a hell of a read."-Rumaan Alam, New York Times bestselling author of Leave the World Behind "The Bored and the Beautiful is the brilliant crystallization of possibilities realized, a tabloid-noir of glam and struggle, a triumph of glitter in the streets 'where rats turn into stars!'"-Nico Walker, author of Cherry A downtown "it" girl falls for an influential journalist who pushes her addiction issues-with love, pills, and headlines-to the breaking point, in the intoxicating and propulsive first novel from the author of the New York Times bestselling memoir How to Murder Your Life. Meet Dizzy Calatrava: blonde, brilliant, and perpetually one cigarette away from collapse. It's 2012 and she's a downtown writer with a tabloid presence, a narcotics habit, and a tendency to treat New York City like her own private paradise. Unreliable yet unforgettable, Dizzy pops amphetamine pills like Tic Tacs, drifting between Thai rehabs and rooftop afterparties like a sorceress in platforms, narrating the apocalypse of her thirties in prose so sparkling you can feel it burn your nose. When Dizzy meets Editor-In-Chief, a charming, fellow media personality whose bad behavior only helps his star rise, she wonders if perhaps she's met her true match. But is this a tale of two kindred flames igniting, or is Dizzy flying too close to the sun? The Bored and the Beautiful is a dark, feminine, and salacious glimpse into the mind of a lovable protagonist who you can't help but root for as she makes every mistake you can imagine-and probably some you can't.
