Empire of the Elite by Michael B. Grynbaum: A history of Condé Nast that misses the big story

Empire of the Elite by Michael B. Grynbaum: A history of Condé Nast that misses the big story

Having edited British GQ for 22 years, when I left in 2021, as the operation became centralised in New York, my agent at Curtis Brown told me to write a memoir about my time there. Having zero interest in doing so, I said I would rather concentrate on other things (principally, an extremely long holiday with my family). But as he is a very good agent, he pestered me until I said yes, which turned out to be an extremely fortuitous decision.
