The Financial Lives of the Poets

"Lifts off like a rocket ... This vigorous, engaging novel is one of the sharpest satires to come along in years." -- BOSTON GLOBE

  • Time's #2 Book of the Year
  • National Bestseller

"A deliciously antic tale of an American dream gone very sour ... sharp, wide-eyed, soulful ... a scathing indictment of our country's character and the 'ruined systems' we labor under." -- WASHINGTON POST

 

"An apt and timely version of the current Great Recession ... dangerously astute." -- NEW YORK TIMES
