In UP THE AGENCY, originally published in 1990, Peter Mayle turns his mind back to what drove him to the south of France in the first place: the advertising business, where he lost thirteen perfectly good years of his life. Once known as â€œthe greatest copywriter alive,â€ Mayleâ€™s uproarious and telling retrospective of the foibles of the ad manâ€™s life wittily dissects this odd and fascinating industry, where clients are â€œpigs with checkbooksâ€ and the speed of a new talentâ€™s ascent can be matched only by his shocking fall months later. A sharp-edged look at an industry that brings both pleasure and pain to millions (and millions to a few), UP THE AGENCY will bring certain pleasure to devoted readers of Mayle, AD AGE, and fans of the hit television series MAD MEN. Digital and audio editions include a new foreword by the author.
