内容简介:
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Big Short,
Liar’s Poker and The Blind Side!
The tsunami of cheap credit that rolled across the planet
between 2002 and 2008 was more than a simple financial phenomenon:
it was temptation, offering entire societies the chance to reveal
aspects of their characters they could not normally afford to
indulge.
The Greeks wanted to turn their country into a pi?ata stuffed
with cash and allow as many citizens as possible to take a whack at
it. The Germans wanted to be even more German; the Irish wanted to
stop being Irish.
The trademark of Michael Lewis’s bestsellers is to tell an
important and complex story through characters so outsized and
outrageously weird that you’d think they have to be invented.
(You’d be wrong.) In Boomerang, we meet a brilliant monk who has
figured out how to game Greek capitalism to save his failing
monastery; a cod fisherman who, with three days’ training, becomes
a currency trader for an Icelandic bank; and an Irish real estate
developer so outraged by the collapse of his business that he
drives across the country to attack the Irish Parliament with his
earth-moving equipment.
Lewis’s investigation of bubbles beyond our shores is so
brilliantly, sadly hilarious that it leads the American listener to
a comfortable complacency: Oh, those foolish foreigners. But when
Lewis turns a merciless eye on California and Washington DC, we see
that the narrative is a trap baited with humor, and we understand
the reckoning that awaits the greatest and greediest of debtor
nations.
“No one writes with more narrative panache about money and
finance than Lewis.”
—Michiko Kakutani, New York Times

原文赏析:
The interesting thing, said the German financier...is the glass room at the top (of the Commerzbank HQ building), from which one looks down over Frankfurt.It is a men's toilet. Commerzbank executives had taken him there to show him how, in full view of the world below, he could shit on Deutsche Bank.
Other countries used foreign money to fuel various forms of insanity. The Germans, through their bankers, used their own money to enable foreigners to behave insanely.
that was the biggest American financial lesson that the Icelanders took to heart: the importance of buying as many assets as possible with borrowed money, as asset prices only rose.
I never had any respect for bankers. To this day, one of my favorite phrases is: never trust a banker.
In Greece the banks didn't sink the country. The country sank the banks.
"You have to understand," he told me, "Iceland is no longer of country. It is a hedge fund."
