The booming times of market optimism--when the culture boiled with money and corporations seemed more vital and influential than governments-- are poised to crash. Eric Packer, a billionaire asset manager at age twenty-eight, emerges from his penthouse triplex and settles into his lavishly customized white stretch limousine. Today he is a man with two missions: to pursue a cataclysmic bet against the yen and to get a haircut across town. Stalled in traffic by a presidential motorcade, a music idol's funeral and a violent political demonstration, Eric receives a string of visitors--experts on security, technology, currency, finance and a few sexual partners--as the limo sputters toward an increasingly uncertain future. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ci\u003eCosmopolis\u003c\/i\u003e, Don DeLillo's thirteenth novel, is both intimate and global, a vivid and moving account of the spectacular downfall of one man, and of an era.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Scribner","offers":[{"title":"Cosmopolis | Don Delillo | Paperback | 9780743244251 | New | Fiction 1693499","offer_id":50818526806274,"sku":"1693499","price":42.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/814WVmDLNcL.jpg?v=1792516225","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/cosmopolis","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
