Product Description:
Tells the story of a young man's education in the two oldest human passions, love and money. This title charts the swift rise of the Clark brothers, Bobby Clark and Jim Clark, and tallies the cost of their success on everyone around them, especially on the woman who becomes a lover to both men.
Review:
"Dirty, greatly original, and very hard to stop reading" (Jonathan Franzen)
"How To Sell is a bleak, funny, unforgiving novel about how we buy and sell everything - merchandise, drugs, sex, trust, power, peace of mind, religion, friendship, and each other. It's written extremely finely, with wit and enviable self-control. A genuinely fresh, disconcerting voice" (Zadie Smith)
"A relentless, clever, sordid novel about what lies at the heart of most transactions - sex and money" (Francesca Segal Observer)
"Smart, devious and sad" (Catherine Taylor Guardian)
"This book smells like a hit" (Vogue)
