Whoops!
John Lanchesters Whoops! Why Everyone Owes Everyone and No One Can Pay" is the unbelievable true story of the economic crisis. We are to use a technical economic term screwed. The cowboy capitalists had a party with everyones money and now were all paying for it. What went wrong? And will we learn our lesson - or just carry on as before like celebrating surviving a heart attack with a packet of Rothmans? John Lanchester travels with a cast of characters - including reckless banksters snoozing regulators complacent politicians predatory lenders credit-drunk spendthrifts and innocent bystanders to understand deeply and genuinely what is happening and why we feel the way we do. "Devastatingly funny.. .the route map to the crazed world of contemporary finance we have all been waiting
for". (Will Self). "Bang on the money". ("Independent"). "Explains the crisis in a way that actually sticks.. .to my amazement I finally grasp it". (Janice Turner "The Times").

John Lanchester is a journalist novelist and winner of the Whitbread First Novel Award. His fiction includes "Mr Philips" "The Debt to Pleasure and Capital".
