Title: 4-in-1
Product review: At least 4 great novels wrapped in one average novel. Average by standards of Tom Wolfe off course. After reading his other novel "Bonfire of the Vanities", you feel that Tom Wolfe could have done much better than this one. The most disturbing aspect of this book is, like I said before, that there are too many different stories going on and they have a not much of an influence on the main story. At least one of them, the story of the guy who was sacked from a company owned by the main character, has no relevance to the main story until the ending pages and even that link is very weak. Honestly, I was a bit disappointed when I finished this book. Not because it's lousy, no, it's not, but because I was expecting much more riveting thing from the author of "Bonfire of the Vanities". My recommendations: A must read and if you haven't read "Bonfire of the Vanities", read this book first.
