The Right Address - Audio CD - Abridged Author:Carrie Karasyov, Jill Kargman, Barbara Rosenblat (Narrator) The Right Address sears through the upper crust of New York’s glittering Park Avenue scene to dish the dirt on the ladies who lunch, the gents who club, and the desperate climbers who will stop at nothing to join the backstabbing, champagne-sipping, socialite-eat-socialite stratosphere. — When Melanie Sartomsky, wily Floridian flight... more » attendant, snares billionaire divorcée Arthur “the coffin king” Korn, she is catapulted into the crème de la crème of Park Avenue society, where hiring the wrong decorator is tantamount to social suicide, and where, if you’re anyone, your personal assistant has a personal assistant. But Melanie quickly discovers that in the world of the rich and idle, malicious gossip is as de rigeur as owning twenty pairs of Manolo Blahniks. And despite her frenzied plunge into the charity circuit and the right dinner reservations, her neighbors are Givenchy-clad vultures who see her as nothing more than a reinvented trailer trollop. To make matters worse, when a snide society-rag journalist rakes her over the coals, Melanie’s reputation is toast.
Meanwhile, Melanie is not the only billionaire in the neighborhood coming unhinged. Kleptomania, adultery, plagiarism, and a grisly Harlem sex murder are just a few of the secrets swirling under the pedigreed patina of furs and emeralds on Park Avenue.
Audio Review:
Melanie Korn, married to funeral home billionaire Arthur Korn, is trying desperately to fit into the upper echelon of New York City's elite social circles. But Melaine was born to poor parents and feels she must compete with the memory of Arthur's first wife and the richest of the idle rich. Through Melanie's character the authors reveal the petty and the vain, complete with scandal and deceit. Barbara Rosenblat uses her prodigious talents to portray the foibles and snobbery of wealthy Manhattanites. When Melanie discovers life outside of the Upper East side, Rosenblat adds backbone to her character and shows just how hard it is to be yourself when you want to live at the "right address." -- AudioFile
