    Received one of these in the post from the Louis Vuitton department in Brown Thomas, Grafton Street.

    It is an incredibly beautiful book and very expensive looking, very nice of them to send one out without asking. I have read it cover to cover and came across on page 35 a real-life story called 'On the Road', it is written by a reporter and there are photographs of him but it doesn't say who he is.

    Did anyone else who received a copy recognise him or know who he might be?

    I don't know if the story is real or not but the guy is clearly a model. And the bag in the pics is far too pristine to have travelled the world and been used as a pillow!

    And they aren't sending it to be nice..it's a brochure and they are sending it in the hope you will spend your hard earned cash on one of the bags featured!

    You are probably correct re: the model, however, I do think it was still nice of them to send it out. There are no prices in the book and having read it from cover to cover it wouldn't make me want to spending €€€€'s on a bag, the wallet was as far as I could stretch. It is more to do with craftsmanship and the history of manufacture than a brochure but that's just my opinion.

    Is that Andrew McCarthy's new book?
