The Art of Southern Charm

By: Patricia Altschul, Deborah Davis

Narrated by: Tiffany Morgan

Fan-favorite Bravolebrity Patricia Altschul from the primetime show Southern Charm finally brings fans her eagerly anticipated opus on etiquette and living a glamorous Southern lifestyle. Patricia provides advice on every situation, from hosting a memorable cocktail party, to decoding the dress code for any event, to handling a drunken boor at the dinner table, to delivering the perfectly phrased insult - like her now iconic "shameless strumpet". The Art of Southern Charm takes listeners inside the world of Charleston's most captivating grande dame, who (with Michael the Butler) offers a blueblood's blueprint for curating and celebrating life at its best.

Critic reviews

"Patricia on #SouthernCharm, like lookin' in the damn mirror. Cheers queen." (Lady Gaga)

Annoying definitions throughout book

I wanted to enjoy this and mostly,did but it’s so condescending with all the definitions all thru the book. It got to the point where she would say a certain word and I would think, here comes the definition! I’m not sure what grade level she thinks her audience is, but unless it’s a truly unusual word, leave out the definitions. It’s insulting to your audience . . . As you said in the book, if you don’t know the meaning of a word look it up in the dictionary or google it.

I love Patricia!

I appreciate Patricia’s view on hosting and etiquette. I only wish they used her voice to narrate not some fake southern accent.

Excellent ideas to spice up your hospitality

We were not expecting an instruction manual of hospitality. We thoroughly enjoyed the great ideas on spicing up a party in a classy way, making guests feel at home, as well as interior design. Great methods on making guests feel comfortable in a social setting as well as etiquette. Insights into the show were fun
