With “a reporter’s curiosity and an uncanny instinct for the pulse of the zeitgeist” (New York Times), Michael Lewis is renowned for his prescient and lively nonfiction. Liar’s Poker, his semiautobiographical account of Wall Street in the 80s, is considered one of the definitive books of that time. He has also addressed such wide-ranging topics as Silicon Valley (The New New Thing and Next), the electoral process (Trail Fever), and the 2008 financial crisis (The Big Short). His books The Blind Side and Moneyball were adapted into critically acclaimed, award-winning, and popular films. In Flash Boys, Lewis follows a small cadre of upright Wall Street insiders who’ve gone to war with the large investment firms and banks that have rigged the rules to their advantage.
