Description
NOW A MAJOR NETFLIX SERIES
A dissection of greed-obsessed America a decade after The Bonfire of the Vanities and on the cusp of the millennium, from the master chronicler of American culture Tom Wolfe
Charlie Croker, once a fabled college football star, is now a late-middle-aged Atlanta real estate entrepreneur-turned conglomerate king. His expansionist ambitions and outsize ego have at last hit up against reality. Charlie has a 28,000 acre quail shooting plantation, a young and demanding second wife and a half-empty downtown tower with a staggering load of debt. Wolfe shows us contemporary America with all the verve, wit, and insight that have made him our most admired novelist.

It took me a while to finish this book (more than three months acutally). But that wasn't because I didn't like the book. I did! It was very detailed, mostly too detailed but apart from that I really liked the storyline and I liked the way Tom Wolfe told the whole story and got them all together in the end.
