Had heard about this somewhere, and happened to find a copy this afternoon.
From amazon:
Fran Lebowitz cheerfully admits that she is intergalactically self-absorbed, a little crazy and really, really hard to please - just ask her eternally patient and bemused husband, Frank. But when her life in the fast lane falls apart - again - it's time for a miracle. Good old Frank delivers what seems the answer to her prayers - to escape for three months to Singapore while he does some business. But what starts out as a little break and a very big culture shock for all concerned marks the hilarious beginning of the end of the old Fran - and a whole new life. This is unreliable memoir at its best, drawn from the real life of one Fran Lebowitz, a broad who really knows how to grab life by the scruff of the neck.

I've tried to read this on three separate occasions and failed miserably. It's not getting a fourth try.
Hmm This looks really good but .... will have to wait and see if I have any better luck with it then Cari???

Picked up from Brisbane meetup 16/10/05.
This woman had to be the most self righteous, opinionated, self centered creature to ever walk this earth. I did manage to read this all the way through but I can't quite pinpoint what it was that made me finish this.
She wants it all but doesn't want to put any effort into either her kids or her marriage, I am unsure how they even manage to keep that together with her manipulations and egocentric behaviour.
