Critics Review

‘The details of Anna Wintour’s life have been kept as tantalizingly hidden as her eyes behind her trademark sunglasses. This book tells her stunning story. Extraordinarily sweeping, astute and unputdownable.’ - Sheila Weller, New York Times bestselling author of CARRIE FISHER: A LIFE ON THE EDGE and GIRLS LIKE US

‘Anna is brilliantly written and well-researched, full of the kinds of details you’ve always wanted to know about Wintour’s early life, and the ways in which she used her considerable gifts to amass astonishing, and enduring, power and influence.’ - Laurie THE DEFINITIVE ORAL BIOGRAPHY


‘Like a nonfiction version of The Devil Wears Prada’ - Elizabeth Day


‘An impressively detailed portrait that reveals much about Wintour’s management style and early career’ - Financial Times, Books of the Year


‘Fascinating’ - Sunday Times


‘Odell’s book is deeply sourced and rich with anecdotes. Although she’s clearly sympathetic to her subject, she’s direct in addressing Wintour’s missteps.’ - The Times
