Sinossi
Eddie is an honest, compassionate man who finds himself, at the age of thirty-eight, with a wife, a child, and three dollars. How did he get that way? He is a university graduate. He married an attractive intelligent woman, his lover from university days. He is a good husband, father and son. At any other time the world would smile on him. But this is the nineties, and the world values other things.
Angry, yet full of unexpected humour, Three Dollars chronicles a modern breach in the social contract, and the legacy of Thatcherism and Reaganomics and its effect on people and relationships. It is about a man's attempt to retain his humanity, his family and his sense of humour in grim and pitiless times; about what happens to people in our brave new world of downsizing, outsourcing and privatising.

Condizione: Aceptable. : En 'Three Dollars', Elliot Perlman nos presenta a Eddie, un hombre honesto y compasivo que, a los treinta y ocho años, se encuentra con una esposa, un hijo y solo tres dólares en el bolsillo. La novela explora cómo llegó a esta situación, a pesar de ser un graduado universitario y un buen hombre de familia. Ambientada en los años noventa, la historia critica los valores cambiantes de la sociedad y las consecuencias del thatcherismo y la reaganomía en las relaciones humanas.
