Description
A sharp and funny portrait of a brash era, When We Were Rich is also a surprisingly tender take on flawed masculinity. Set against the backdrop of a crucial decade, this novel paints a vivid picture of London in the late 1990s. Mass immigration from Eastern Europe, the rise of social media, and the property boom all contribute to a sense of upheaval, as characters struggle to make sense of their lives. Frankie Blue, an estate agent focused on getting rich, is just one of those caught up in the winds of change. As he navigates his marriage, friendships, and insecurities, the lines between reality and excess begin to blur. This novel is a deeply humane exploration of all our lives, set against a golden time for some and a nightmare for others. With its twisty plots and interwoven characters, it's a wickedly funny and often shocking portrayal of a pivotal moment in history.
