Books / Politics Poor Monica Lewinsky Wants to Tell You a Story
Posted by Paul Constant on Fri, Sep 14, 2012 at 1:29 PM
I feel so sorry for Monica Lewinsky. This poor young woman—she was so young!—basically renders herself unemployable for her entire life by making her name synonymous with illicit blowjobs and a disastrous money shot. So I don't begrudge her for taking this leap:
Monica Lewinsky is shopping a top-secret book project, Page Six has exclusively learned. We’re told Lewinsky has been making the rounds with major publishers, who were all asked to sign nondisclosure agreements to take the meetings. It’s unclear who the front-runners are, but, says an insider familiar with the project, “I’m sure every major publisher was interested in hearing what she had to say.”
At least this will make Lewinsky some money. But even then, people will just pick the book up in bookstores, flip through to the sex scenes, and then set the book back down, unpurchased. Poor, poor Monica Lewinsky.
