Liar’s Poker
An insider's account of a 1980s bond desk, written as a warning and read by a generation as a career advertisement.
Lewis joined Salomon Brothers in the mid-eighties and left four years later to write this, an insider account of a bond desk at the moment mortgage trading was invented. It is funny about greed rather than solemn, and it was meant as a warning that a generation of readers took as a recruitment brochure instead.
