Description: A NEW YORK TIMES NOTABLE BOOK A WASHINGTON POST, CHICAGO TRIBUNE, SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE, AND LOS ANGELES TIMES BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR There seems to be nothing Smiley can't write about fabulously well; her insights startle, dazzle." --SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE reed. Envy. Sex. Property. In her subversively e funny yet genuinely moving new novel, Jane Smiley nails down several American obsessions with the skill of a master carpenter Forthright, likable Joe Stratford is the kind of local busi- nessman everybody trusts, for good reason. But it's 1982, and even in Joe's small town. values are in upheaval not just property values, either. Enter Marcus Burns, a would-be master of the universe whose years with the IRS have taught him which rules are meant to be broken. Before long he and Joe are new best friends-and partners in an investment venture so complex that no one may ever understand it. Add to this Joe's roller coaster affair with his mentor's married daughter. The result is as suspenseful and entertaining as any of Jane Smiley's fiction.
