An accurate and stinging guide to social class, a venomous taste judge that has been best-selling for 30 years, telling you that true style transcends class!
What is the level? Why did John F. Kennedy look surprised when he saw Richard Nixon on television and said to his friend, "This guy has no class at all?"
Class is a reality that is deliberately ignored but cannot be denied. It is not only reflected in appearance, clothing, occupation, housing, table manners, leisure style, conversation, nor just how much money one has or can earn. Rank is a combination of small things that are difficult to pinpoint, but it is these small qualities that establish your place in the world. The criterion for judging grade is by no means only wealth. Style, taste and cognitive level are equally important.
Through a unique perspective, keen observation, penetrating analysis, and witty and humorous writing, the author vividly depicts the social class phenomenon in American society, and makes a nuanced comparison of the tastes of people such as 369 and others, which is both amusing and enlightening. The many descriptions of American society in the book all reflect the current situation in China, so this book can also be used as a mirror for observing Chinese society.
