What is Sex ve městě about?

The book grew out of columns Candace Bushnell wrote for the New York Observer. With humor and irony, it follows the sexual and romantic relationships of people in the social world of 1990s New York. Prominent figures include Carrie Bradshawová, a writer searching for love, and Samantha Jonesová, a confident film producer. The book is a mosaic of social observations, stories, and semi-autobiographical elements that later developed into a well-known television phenomenon.
