the book is a fictional account of a South African copywriter, Rachel Marcus, who is forced to move to new york after losing her job at a local ad agency in a humiliatingly public debacle.
today’s second last excerpt takes place in a dodgy below-the-line agency in New York City. In this scene client service is debriefing Rachel and her art director, Justin on their latest sanitary pad campaign.
