Description

Boswell Book Company presents a special afternoon event with Renée Rosen, author of Fifth Avenue Glamour Girl. In New York City, you can disappear into the crowd. At least that’s what Gloria Downing desperately hopes as she tries to reinvent herself after a devastating family scandal. She’s ready for a total life makeover and a friend she can lean on—and into her path walks a young, idealistic woman named Estée. Before Gloria knows it, she is swept up in her new friend’s mission, and while Estée rolls up her sleeves, Gloria begins to discover her own talents. But in a world unaccustomed to women with power, they’ll each have to reckon with the price that comes from daring to live life on their own terms and refusing to back down. From Marie Benedict, author of The Personal Librarian: “In this captivating novel, Renée Rosen invites readers to peer behind the lovely façade of the iconic Estee Lauder, at her real origin and hardscrabble rise. This illuminating tale about ambition and friendship between Estee and Gloria Downing, another young woman who has changed her name and her identity, explores the dangers inherent in embellishing the truth. A fascinating glimpse into a legend who has changed the face of cosmetics forever.” Renée Rosen is the bestselling author of The Social Graces, Park Avenue Summer, Windy City Blues, and more. She is also the author of Every Crooked Pot, a YA novel published in 2007. Click here to order your copy of Fifth Avenue Glamour Girl. Signed copies and personalization available on pre-orders.
