  Examines such best sellers as Bridget Jones's Diary, The Devil Wears Prada, and Sex and the City as urban appropriations of and departures from the narrative traditions of the novel of manners, the popular romance, and the bildungsroman. This also uses chick lit as a lens through which to view gender relations in US and British society in the 1990s.
