Tom Wolfe’s 1988 novel follows Sherman McCoy, a high-flying Wall Street bond trader whose life unravels after a wrong turn into the Bronx. The narrative tracks the subsequent legal and social fallout, involving opportunistic politicians, journalists, and religious leaders. Set against the backdrop of 1980s New York City, the story chronicles a series of judicial proceedings and public demonstrations. Wolfe provides a detailed look at the city’s racial, class, and legal hierarchies.
