Details
Synopsis
Film critic and novelist David Denby parallels his early 21st-century obsession with the stock market and the unraveling of his marriage to the novelist Cathleen Schine. He intersperses the story of his growing fixation--his own expression of midlife crisis--with descriptions of life with his estranged wife and two sons, and the way it changes during his singlehood. Denby lives through the corporate scandals and hucksterism of the stock market, to emerge--still standing--on the other side, albeit with a shrunken portfolio.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "In early 2000, you were sure that if you could just grab hold of the flying coattails of the New Economy investments, you could get rich very quickly."
Industry Reviews
"David Denby's AMERICAN SUCKER is not so much a critique of the era as it is a tragicomic, introspective tale of how much it can cost an ignorant investor to learn the true character of Wall Street."
Nation - Robert Sherrill (05/03/2004)
