Bringing Home the Birkin: My Life in Hot Pursuit of the World's Most Coveted Handbag

Michael Tonello

William Morrow, 2008

Fun read, very informative, but at its heart, it's an Hermes expose
While reading reviews for this book, one thing you rarely see is the mention that it's also a scathing expose of Hermes' business practices. I also don't think their customers, and in particular those that pay ridiculous secondary-market prices, come off all that ...

Bag of Bones

Stephen King
