The Big Short

Reviews

Compelling and horrifying A more than worthy successor to Liar's Poker ... if you want to know about the origins of the credit crunch, and the extraordinary cast of misfits, visionaries and chancers who made money from the crash, there's no more readable account A triumph ... riveting ... a genuine page-turner The very best book about this whole affair If you read only one book about the causes of the recent financial crisis, let it be Michael Lewis's The Big Short In the hands of Michael Lewis, anything is possible ... if you want to know how a nation lost its financial mind - and have a good laugh finding out - this is the book to read. Magnificent ... a perfect storm of brilliant writer meeting big subject. It's time to throw another tank of petrol on the Wall Street pyre, as only Lewis can He is so good everyone else may as well pack up No one writes with more narrative panache about money and finance than Mr. Lewis Probably the single best piece of financial journalism ever written Hugely entertaining Terrifying and superbly told Genius Expand reviews
