Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - A rule-breaking reporter for a crooked newspaper investigates the darker side of a popular real estate tycoon. One of the tycoon's rickety buildings houses hundreds of workers for a shadowy bureaucracy. The reporter's incendiary discoveries compel him to hide his related memoir for a century to shield those on the scandals' fringes. Dr. Rebecca Kitiona-Fenton, a multiracial feminist, outspokenly annotates the newspaper memoir of her white great-granduncle, Jonathan Stone. This complex tale teems with memorable characters caught up in a classic Washington dilemma: friendship vs. duty. Real estate magnate Sy Solomon, a folksy ex-bricklayer, buys up scores of politicians and bureaucrats. Kirkus Reviews says The Solomon Scandals 'captures the aura of dark nihilism in some quarters of the political world with great power.
