The Hamptons Dictionary: The Essential Guide to Class Warfare

by Miles Jaffe, Plinio Pinto (Illustrator)

A Devil's Dictionary for the modern age, The Hamptons Dictionary is a wicked social satire and hysterical lexical sendup of the rich and famous who flock to the Hamptons each summer and the locals who count the minutes until Labor Day when they leave. While Eastern Long Island, New York's swanky beach community, is the inspiration for Miles Jaffe's hilariously scathing look at the misadventures of the overloaded, it will be thoroughly enjoyed by anyone who has experienced what happens wherever the ubërrich set up camp.

At times it was so caustic as to be nearly un-enjoyable, but that didn't stop me ;)
