Product details : MONEY
| Now bankrupt after some failed gambles, Aristide Saccard, the
former kingpin of the Paris Stock Exchange, desperately wants to get back to
the top of the financial pile. When his powerful brother, the government
minister Eugène Rougon, refuses to help him, he forms a partnership with the
engineer Hamelin and founds the Banque Universelle, which speculates on
public works in the Middle East. But as his greed and desire to outplay his
rivals gets the better of him, the dashing and ruthless Saccard perilously
begins to inflate the value of his enterprise using rumour, intrigue,
financial manipulation and all the other tricks in the book. Inspired by real events and meticulously researched by Zola, Money is, in the wake of recent financial scandals, an all-too-topical exploration of the dynamics of greed, the excesses of capitalism and its dangerous relationship with politics and the press. |
