The Bonfire of the Vanities - Tom Wolfe

Used. Worn

Tom Wolfe's satirical masterpiece captures the excess and moral decay of 1980s New York City through the eyes of Sherman McCoy, a wealthy bond trader whose life unravels after a hit-and-run accident. This gripping novel weaves together ambition, racism, and the clash between Manhattan's elite and working-class communities. With sharp wit and unflinching social commentary, Wolfe exposes the vanity and hypocrisy lurking beneath the city's glittering surface. A compelling exploration of power, justice, and the American dream gone awry.
