Inhaltsangabe
‘These characters, their money, and their morality come together in an absolutely devastating thunderclap’ KILEY REID, bestselling author of Come and Get It
Money talks. But what if it lies?
An ambitious young Black woman, plotting her way into the world of the one percent.
An old white billionaire, facing his own extinction.
He’s attracted to her intelligence, her refusal to be deferential, maybe also her Blackness.
She’s drawn to his power and money – and his apparent willingness to share both with her.
But how far is each prepared to go to get what they think they deserve?
Taut, unsettling, and alive to the seductive distortions of money, Entitlement is a biting tale for our new gilded age.
*A GUARDIAN HIGHLIGHT FOR 2024*
Kritikerstimmen
'Entitlement is needle-sharp: discomfiting, disquieting, mesmerizing. Alam taps deep into the greed and ambition that make us human, and that make us miserable’ (Rebecca Makkai, author of THE GREAT BELIEVERS)
'A quick-witted, daring, beautifully composed novel – deeply knowing and full of wonder' (Susie Boyt)
'Rumaan Alam’s writing is vivid and gorgeous. This is a book that I loved, in part because it feels forbidden, centring on that taboo subject which is ‘other people’s money’. Peeking in on the lifestyles of the uber wealthy is a favourite pastime of mine and here Rumaan Alam offers that up in droves but not only that, the chance to peek into their souls … Alam is expert at subtly detailing Brooke’s sometimes loneliness as she exercises social mobility, a longing for a sense of self-hood and identity that perhaps is the secret fuel that propels her ambition. I cannot recommend this book enough, I truly devoured it and enjoyed every second' (Celine Saintclare, author of SUGAR, BABY)
