From "Little Red Prada Hood" to "The Golden Faberg Egg", award-winning British comedian Daniel Foxx reworks classic fairytales for privileged adults.Once upon a time, in a land far away (in fact, in an entirely different tax bracket), there lived some perfectly privileged children ... In his second book, Daniel Foxx looks to beloved, classic fairytales for inspiration and finds wonderful stories of even more privileged children. Meet: Rapunzel, whose stay in a boutique tower-concept hotel is just the ticket; aspiring gourmand Jack, who sensibly exchanges his cow for a handful of 100% organic legumes; the two ugly stepsisters, Porchetta and Frankette, whose deep-plane facelifts yield excellent results; and The Three Little Pigs, whose property portfolio is--quite frankly--booming. Wicked, funny, and razor-sharp, Daniel Foxx's wonderful stories of pomp and privilege make the perfect gift for your most extravagant friend, or a cozy, relatable read for yourself.
