Divorce settlements that include the Birkins at their current retail price. Air kisses, landing strips, and lounge-chair bribery. For most of us, the idea of life inside the golden triad of Park Avenue, Sagaponack, and St. Barths is just as exotic as the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle. Luckily, Richard Kirshenbaum has a VIP pass to the Upper East Side and is willing to share the wealthof gossip.

His insider sources may be anonymous, but his up-to-the-minute portrait of todays 1 percent is both insightful and a joy to read, no matter what tax bracket youre in. (Mortimer Zuckerman)
