Wow! Miss M. I had forgotten about Tom Wolfe’s great novel. That is a must read for everyone who wants to learn more about the decadence of the elite, and, as an added attraction, about the criminal justice system in NYC.
I could have sworn that Tom Wolfe had hidden under a desk in the DA’s office. That perfect was his capturing of the mentality and language.
This is still a great book, and well worth reading.
And remember: all the Bronx DAs in that book were desperate to have a white criminal. They were tired of marching black people through the justice system. I doubt things have changed much. DSK may be the perfect honky for an all-black jury!
