Rating: 4 stars
Summary: 28 year veteran of the bond business likes Liar's Poker
Review: His characters are hilarious and not uncommon in my experience in the bond business in the 70's and 80's. There is a lot of color in the bond side which is lacking on the equity sude and the author did a good job of bring this out. Good job.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I Would Give My Left Arm to Write Like This
Review: The novel is one of the best that I have read in quite sometime. McConnell's Gsrnish speaks with a clarity that I have actually seen in some alcoholics. I'm not trying to be funny, but this novel does use a lot of adjectives but somehow it works. Ray Carver once wrote that once he saw Gimmicks he would run for cover, but it just somw how works; similarly to a Charles Bukowski story. Keep on writing Brother because this novel rules!
