Reseña del libro "The Wealth of No Nation: Book 1 (en Inglés)"
The world, as we know it, is changing at an increasing pace. As the distribution of wealth continues to drive a wedge between the haves and have not's, some choose to play a real life game of poker whilst blind folded, holding a bad hand and down to their last chips...Enter Maynard Kane, a fresh faced graduate who's just landed a new job at a company he knows nothing about. He sees in it as an opportunity to move up in the world and pull his family up from the hand-to-mouth lives they've been leading.As Shai, the equally ambitious company owner, takes him under her wing, he finds himself having to adapt quickly in this dog-eat-dog world if he's to get ahead. He soon learns though that the rewards lead him down a dark and crazy path that may just tear his golden ticket in half.Meanwhile, as Maynard's story develops, so does another narrative on the other side of the same city: a murkier, and sometimes deadly, world of gangsters dressed up as businessmen. As the old guard strikes a lucrative deal with an up-and-coming 'entrepreneur', a mixture of views and identities lead these frenemies to play a game of cat and mouse with deadly consequences.The Wealth of No Nation tells the story of how difficult it is for a new generation to gain a foothold in the modern world, as previous generations struggle to keep a grip on the power they wield.Inspired by events of the author's own life and the idea of what their life could have been had they chosen a different path, this is a novel born out of classic crime stories such as Breaking Bad, The Wire and even The Godfather. It is sure to entertain, full of real world drama, heart thumping chapters and Easter Eggs aplenty.
