批評家のレビュー
“Should come with an undertow warning…I was pulled under. Rumaan Alam has mastered that eerie moment when an ordinary gesture has the potential for disaster.”–Louise Erdrich, Pulitzer Prize winning author of The Night Watchman
“Held me spellbound from its evocative opening to its startling, audacious last pages."—Danzy Senna, nationally bestselling author of Caucasia
“These characters, their money, and their morality come together in an absolutely devastating thunderclap.”–Kiley Reid, New York Times bestselling author of Such a Fun Age
あらすじ・解説
A novel of money and morality from the New York Times bestselling author of Leave the World Behind
Brooke wants. She isn’t in need, but there are things she wants. A sense of purpose, for instance. She wants to make a difference in the world, to impress her mother along the way, to spend time with friends and secure her independence. Her job assisting an octogenarian billionaire in his quest to give away a vast fortune could help her achieve many of these goals. It may inspire new desires as well: proximity to wealth turns out to be nothing less than transformative. What is money, really, but a kind of belief?
Taut, unsettling, and alive to the seductive distortions of money, Entitlement is a riveting tale for our new gilded age, a story that confidently considers questions about need and worth, race and privilege, philanthropy and generosity, passion and obsession. It is a provocative, propulsive novel about the American imagination.
