Here is Judith Krantz’s greatest triumph—I’ll Take Manhattan. She has written a dazzling tale of love and betrayal, and created her most joyous character—sensational Maxi, a woman who unexpectedly discovers that her talent for lust is matched by a hunger hard work and be successful. 

          When Maxi learns that her late father’s magazine empire is sabotaged by her uncle and sold to the highest bidder, she demands control of Buttons and Bows, the failing fashion trade weekly that was her fathers first magazine. She enlists the aid of her ex-husband and enjoys the input of their sassy daughter, Angelica. With them , and a band of dedicated editors, Maxi turns her unbridled drive for excess into day-and-night labour, transforming Buttons and Bows into B&B, the most original and daring women’s magazine in the country.
