Fabulous Nobodies: A Novel about a Girl Who's in Love with Her Clothes

Lee Tulloch

Before Bridget Jones, Carrie Bradshaw, and the Shopaholic, it was a world of Fabulous Nobodies

Now, back in print after fifteen years, it's your chance to experience this hysterically wild cult-status novel for the first time.

Get ready to meet:

Reality Nirvana Tuttle
A self-described "doorwhore" at one of Manhattan's hottest clubs. She never gets up before 2 P.M. and has vivid, two-way conversations with every dress in her closet.

Hugo "A Go-Go" Falk
Gossip columnist and documenter of all things fabulous in the fashion scene. This man is the key to turning Reality into a true Somebody.

Phoebe Johnson
Junior shoe editor of Perfect Woman magazine who has dedicated her life to looking like Audrey Hepburn—and the one woman Reality can trust with her frocks.

and Freddie Barnstable
A transvestite with an uncanny knack for finding fabulous fashions, and his sidekick, a little dog named Cristobal Balenciaga. These Fabulous Nobodies will take you on a quest to be Truly Somebody, in a city long gone but never to be forgotten: New York City of the 1980s.

Praise for this book

"A quirky tale of credible young love. . . . Tulloch . . . is very funny, and she likes Emma Peel, and if that isn't Fabulous, I can't think what is." - Sunday Times (London)
"Lighthearted yet devastatingly accurate and witty social satire." - Publishers Weekly
"I was glued to this book! Reality is such a funny, sharp, fabulous character . . . and I want her frocks!" - Sophie Kinsella
"If you have a taste for frivolity, humor and Manolo Blahnik sling-backs, you will be enthralled. Ms. Tulloch's voice is sharp, affectionate and hilarious. She reminds me of the master, P. G. Wodehouse." - New York Times
