The Lehman trilogy : a novel  Cover Image Book Book

The Lehman trilogy : a novel / Stefano Massini ; translated from the Italian by Richard Dixon.

Massini, Stefano, (author.). Dixon, Richard, (translator.).

Summary:

A "novel in verse that inspired the ... West End and Off-Broadway play of the same name, [this book] follows the epic rise and fall of three generations of [the Lehman] family and through them tells the story of American ambition and hubris"--Publisher marketing
" ... Spanning three generations and 150 years, The Lehman Trilogy is a moving epic that dares to tell the story of modern capitalism through the saga of the Lehman brothers and their descendants. Surprising and exciting, brilliant and inventive, Stefano Massini's masterpiece--like Hamilton--is a story of immigration, ambition, and success; it is the story of America itself from a daring and original perspective."-- Provided by publisher
