De duivel draagt Prada

Meer over het boek

A delightfully dishy novel about the most impossible boss ever, this story follows Andrea Sachs, a small-town girl who lands a coveted job as the assistant to Miranda Priestly, the high-profile editor of Runway magazine. Immersed in a world of high fashion, Andrea navigates an office filled with impossibly stylish colleagues and the ever-demanding Miranda, who effortlessly transforms her sophisticated staff into frightened children. With humor and wit, the narrative offers a fresh perspective on the trials of working for "The Boss from Hell." Through Andrea’s smart and disarming voice, the novel reveals a darkly comedic view of life at the top, far beyond what gossip columns suggest. From arranging for the latest Harry Potter book to be flown to Paris for Miranda’s children, to tracking down a vintage dresser admired by her boss, Andrea faces daily challenges that often extend late into the night. Despite the relentless demands, she remains focused on securing a recommendation from Miranda that could launch her career at any magazine. However, as the job's challenges escalate from unacceptable to outrageous, Andrea must confront whether the dream job is worth the toll it takes on her life and soul.
