Book Description:
Rich Man, Poor Man is a sweeping, panoramic novel that takes us from the bright dawn of the years after World War II to the troubles and complexities of the present. It is about two brothers and their beautiful sister, all trying for their own kind of success in a world they never made. It touches on lust and love, ambition and greed, courage and corruption -- virtually every basic drive and emotion. Set against a glittering contemporary background that only Irwin Shaw could describe so well, it is the greatest achievement of one of the most magnificent storytellers of our time.

A marvelous family saga that cuts across twenty years of violently changing America; from the Hudson River Valley to Mediterranean playgrounds of the rich, with stops in Greenwich Village and Hollywood.
