In 1995, high-flying British journalist Toby Young moved from London to New York to become a contributing editor at Vanity Fair. Other Brits had taken Manhattan—Alistair Cooke, Tina Brown, Anna Wintour—so why couldn't he?

But things didn't quite go according to plan. Within two years, he was fired from Vanity Fair, banned from the most fashionable bar in the city, and couldn't get a date for love or money. Even the local AA group wanted nothing to do with him.

How To Lose Friends And Alienate People is Toby Young's hilarious and best-selling account of the five years he spent looking for love in all the wrong places, working his way down the New York food chain from glossy magazine editor to crash-test dummy for interactive sex toys.
