The Golden Hour is amazingly fresh and funny.

The side characters are vivid, the pay-offs are deeply satisfying, the whole enterprise is a gem.
"Wall Street Part 2" (A GREAT novel!!)
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Ever wonder what might have happened to a Bud Fox type after burning out from his decadent 80s lifestyle? This novel is the perfect version of just that. A thoughtful, hillarious story of the downfall and recovery of a hyped up Wall Street master-of-the-universe. Weinstock does a great job at making us hate, pitty, and finally cheer for a real S.O.B. And you'll never guess the ending... Buy one for yourself, your greedy boss, and your local volunteer fireman.
