Upon this premise, the hit television series "Sex and the City" was born. On this month's 'My City_My Life', we meet the woman who wrote the book that inspired the hugely popular program and its subsequent film adaption.
The award-winning author, Candace Bushnell takes us on a high-energy, spirited tour of the city that never sleeps - New York. From the apartment where Carrie Bradshaw (played by Sarah Jessica Parker) wrote her saucy newspaper columns to the bar where many a Manhattan cocktail's been sunk - we get an insight into the trendy hotspots of the city.
Among the striking skyscrapers and designer boutiques, we show you some of the Big Apple's hidden gems - including a trip to the New York Ballet's glamorous summer gala and a supper and song evening at a traditional cabaret. Candace takes us on a tour of 'One Fifth Avenue', the prestigious apartment building that her latest book is named after - and we meet some of her famous friends.
Like her novels, this month's 'My City_My Life' dives in and out of varying habitats - from New York's upper-class, upper East side to the creative, rebellious neighbourhoods around Greenwich village. If you've ever been to New York on holiday and thought it intoxicating, wait until you witness the city through the eyes of the woman whose name is synonymous with it.
