It took Mr. Wolfe ten years to write this book; it's a big fat long one too. And utterly fascinating. OK, I'm a dyed in the wool TW fan. This book has every thing you love about his work, the details of 1990's culture, the documentation of detail that will make the book interesting a century from now, the twists- Stoic philosophers?- that make a great novel,and the story flows like a great TV series, the kind you arrange your lif around (but so does every one you know) Lots of shallow rich people, tidbits about actual High Society, journalism crossed with Names Have Been Changed To Keep You Guessing... Reading Tom Wolfe is always a joy. So I'd lost my prescious first editin in the New Orleans flood, and snagged a replacement on Ebay. I reread Mr. Wolfes books pretty regularly and HAVE to have an entire set at hand. Try this out, you'll enjoy your self. The research and back stories are so good they're educational.

The book was in great condition with a like-new dust jacket, a pristine hard cover, no bent, torn, or missing pages, and an easy-to-read font. It was a great deal.
