About this book

The Bonfire of the Vanities by Wolfe, Tom. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780374115357.

Sherman McCoy is a WASP, bond trader and self-appointed Master of the Universe. He has a fashionable wife, a Park Avenue apartment and a Southern mistress. His spectacular fall begins the moment he is involved in a hit-and-run accident in the Bronx. Prosecutors, newspaper hacks, politicians and clergy close in on him, determined to bring him down. "The Bonfire of the Vanities" is a caustic satire on the money-feverish Eighties. This exuberant novel cemented Wolfes reputation as the foremost chronicler of his age.
