This book is an invitation to a marvelous party where the talk scintillates, the anecdotes unfailingly amuse, the glamorous guests stay late, and the genial host is a true wit who dispenses one-liners like a latter-day Oscar Wilde. In this funny, wise, self-mocking, and acutely perceptive book, Crisp reveals what style isn't and what style is, who has it, and who doesn't.
