Kravitz approaches life with a side-eyed, surreal sense of humor that is very much at odds with her public persona. This sensibility has governed how she has responded to everything that's come since. To years of self-hate and insecurity; to an industry—a world—that rewards neither loyalty nor sanity; to professional rejection and personal heartache; to the ill will of web commenters and a doubting public. Her ability to laugh despite, well, everything is "something that gets me through life."

Nearly a decade in the making, Kravitz's bombshell social critique both terrifies and enrages. |

Along with a hundred magazine titles and a handful of mistresses, Mavety amassed a fortune of up to $36 million during the twenty-six years he ran the company. Magazines had been in people's lives for more than a hundred years. And as long as God made little boys, a percentage would grow up wanting to see man-on-man action. What could go wrong? The pay sucked, but every day was an Andy Warhol short film. |
