Dive into Tom Wolfe's modern American satire, where Sherman McCoy, a Wall Street "Master of the Universe," has it all: a Park Avenue apartment, a job that brings wealth, power, and prestige, a beautiful wife, and an even more beautiful mistress. Suddenly, one wrong turn changes everything, and Sherman falls from grace, being absorbed into the ravenous heart of a New York City gone mad during the turbulent and socially hilarious 1980s. This paperback edition offers a critical and entertaining look at the society of the time.
Thomas Kennerly Wolfe Jr. was an American author and journalist widely known for his association with New Journalism, a style of news writing and journalism developed in the 1960s and 1970s that incorporated literary techniques. Much of Wolfe's work is satirical and centers on the counterculture of the 1960s and issues related to class, social status, and the lifestyles of the economic and intellectual elites of New York City.
