Purchase options and add-ons
If capitalism were a person, who would it be? Where would it live? Who, how, and what would it love?
Dive into the salacious world of hedge funds, high finance, and penthouse sex dungeons. This raucous tale of a wildly successful New York fund manager and his globetrotting adventures reflects the stark new reality of contemporary uber-wealth, and the capitalist system which created it. Become enraptured with – or repulsed by – the heinously opulent world of the anonymous protagonist and his class of modern billionaires.
But challenging the protagonist’s high-flying escapades in finance and sexual conquest is his twin brother, a maudlin comparative literature professor and single father. With a life defined by tragedy, the brother becomes the countervailing voice of reason and social tranquility.
Filled with equal parts fictitious plotline and broadly researched non-fiction sources, this book offers pointed analysis of the 21st century socio-economic landscape, and begs critical questions about how capitalism can try to reconcile its avaricious nature with a world demanding a more equitable division of resources.
Enlightening yet critical. Serious yet absurd. Fictitious yet factual. This non-fiction novel provides graphic and unapologetic scrutiny from both extremes of the contemporary socio-economic spectrum.

How are ratings calculated?
