Tatiana Boncompagni Writes What She Knows
Have you been looking for a reading experience that lives up to last year's socialite masterpiece, Holly Peterson's The Manny? Then you'll be thrilled to hear about NYTimes Styles contributor and occasional mommy blogger Tatiana Boncompagni's forthcoming roman à clef, Gilding Lily, which follows (overt Wharton reference alert!) Lily Bartholomew's struggles in the cut-throat world of New York high society. Just like Tatiana, Lily is a rich wife who dabbles in lifestyle journalism; she also has a mean mother-in-law! Sounds groundbreaking and Plum Sykes has blurbed it, so it must be good. [JC Report]
