简介：没有固定剧情，想到啥写啥

这本《上海LADY》可说是程乃珊上一本畅销书《上海探戈》的姐妹篇。所不同的是，如果说写《上海探戈》时，程乃珊是力图以一个上海人的立场，来记录上海这座城市的独特语言，以及光怪陆离的都市风景背后那种坚实不变的生活态度的话，那么这本《上海LADY》中，她纯粹地以女性的立场去描画上海这座城市与它的女人，不同的职业、地位、形形色色的女人相，构成了一道如此绚烂的风景线。

编辑推荐 她爱吃，闻到糖炒栗子的香味就迈不开腿；赶时髦，动乱年代也要用废电线圈烫头发；追爱豆，追到比弗利山庄与格里高利•派克拥抱合影……她生于1946年，是名副其实的名门之后，却比谁都贴近今天的年轻人。她是上海的女儿，或者说她就是上海，在时代的新旧交替间看似驯顺，又有固执的坚守，外圆内方，自得其乐。于是，笔下流出的文字……，寻常巷弄蛰伏着传奇，别具强盛的生趣。尽管离去已5年，她关于生活的那股子热腾劲，依然在纸面上兴致勃勃，感染着做书和读书的人。 名人推荐 将程乃珊和其他都市描摹比较，我的意见是，程乃珊不可替代。不只材料拥有的优势，更重要的是，文学营养的品质差异。 ——作家 王安忆 程乃珊是上海的女儿，上海哺育了程乃珊，她也以自己的充满感情的个性文字，回报了这座城市。 ——作家 赵丽宏 对乃珊而言，书房乃是战场，是其生命的维系。她每日躲进狭小的书房，奋...(展开全部)
