The ‘Chateau Marmont Hollywood Handbook’ Is on Sale for First Time in Nearly 30 Years


The Chateau Marmont Hollywood Handbook is back on sale for the first time since 1996. Here's how to buy a copy online.

The cult-classic book is edited by Chateau Marmont owner himself André Balazs, who reveals the true fact and fiction about the storied L.A locale and its evolving culture. The book also includes contributions from dozens of writers such as William Faulkner, Lilian Ross, Budd Schulberg, Gore Vidal, Jay McInerney, Dominick Dunne, and Anthony Haden-Guest, and photographs from Helmut Newton, Dennis Hopper, Annie Leiboviitz, Jack Pierson, and Wolfgang Tillman. “It’s out of time, suspended from the constraints, the issues, the concerns of the real world…In a city without a center, you could call this spot the epicenter: this is where deals are made – where love is won or lost – sometimes all in one night.”
