Tom Wolfe
The Bonfire of the Vanities
New York: Farrar Straus Giroux, 1987
First printing
Tom Wolfe’s first and best novel, a stark x-ray of the excesses of New York in the Eighties.
Wolfe’s satirical skills and caricaturist’s eye skewer the Upper East Side’s golden youths in their shallow narcissism, while maintaining some control over the plot, which ceases to be true for the novels that follow.
Book and unclipped jacket are in very good condition.
