Sex and the City is a collection of essays by Candace Bushnell based on her and her friends' lifestyles. It was first published in 1997, and re-published in 2001, 2006, and in 2008 as a 10th anniversary movie tie-in edition.
The book is an anthology of columns that Bushnell began writing in 1994 for The New York Observer. The book was loosely adapted into a long-running HBO television series also called Sex and the City (1998–2004) which in turn spawned a 2008 film of the same name and a 2010 sequel written under the fictional version of herself, Carrie Bradshaw.
Prequel series
Bushnell's prequel pair of novels, The Carrie Diaries (2010) and Summer and the City (2011), were adapted into a 2013-2014 TV series on The CW network.
