At the heart of the book is Bill Gray, a famous reclusive writer who escapes the failed novel he has been working on for many years and enters the world of political violence, a nightscape of Semtex explosives and hostages locked in basement rooms. Bill's dangerous passage leaves two people stranded: his brilliant, fixated assistant, Scott; and the strange young woman who is Scott's lover - and Bill's.

Better narrator would help

This guy reads DeLillo like it’s the news. He deserves better.
Lot of great ideas in this, as always w DeLillo.

Who understood the risk inherent in the assumption of ever-rising real-estate prices, a risk compounded daily by the creation of those arcane, artificial securities loosely based on piles of doubtful mortgages? Michael Lewis turns the inquiry on its head to create a fresh, character-driven narrative brimming with indignation and dark humor, a fitting sequel to his number-one best-selling Liar’s Poker.

Crooks, all of them crooks

Dense and knotty, The Big Short chronicles the road to the 2008 crash through the story of the investors that managed to foresee the financial crisis, and profit from it.
It’s a little shaggy and could probably stand to lose a hundred pages or more. It’s very convoluted - the author takes on the dubious task of trying to explain financial instruments that even their sellers barely understood. But it’s utterly riveting nonetheless. TL;DR - Wall Street is both morally and legally corrupt, and all the major players should be penniless and in jail, instead of rich and retired.
