From the author of The Official Preppy Handbook comes a new take on the old world that Lisa Birnbach turned into an international best-selling phenomenon thirty years ago. True Prep looks at how the old guard of natural-fiber-loving, dog-worshipping, G&T-soaked preppies adapts to the new order of the Internet, cell phones, rehab, political correctness, reality TV and… polar fleece. No texting at the table, please, but do join us for a special preppy evening with author Lisa Birnbach at Saks Fifth Avenue. Come in through the gifts entrance anytime after 5pm. Refreshments will be served. Books for signing must be purchased in advance or at the event from Left Bank Books. Start: 7:00 pm
