«Todo un hombre» is Tom Wolfe's novel, published by Ediciones B in hardcover (762 pages, in Spanish).
Charlie Croker, an Atlanta real-estate magnate, sees his empire totter under debt and banking pressure. His story crosses with that of Roger White II, a Black lawyer, and Conrad Hensley, a young Stoic. Wolfe weaves their fates into a portrait of American society: power, racism, politics, and material values.
Original title: A Man in Full. First edition: 1999, in the Tiempos Modernos collection from Ediciones B. Translation by Juan Gabriel López Guix.
A novel suitable for reading clubs and readers of contemporary fiction interested in American social criticism.
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.
