Critics Review

Makes the Wolf of Wall St look like a pussycat. * Daily Mail *
LeFevre is a pretty loathsome human being. * The Times *
His story reads like a frat boy’s fever dream of the high-flying life: morning drinking, late-night drinking, and drinking all the hours in between. * Publishers Weekly *
[A] sleazy catalogue of vice. * Wall Street Journal *
Details midday cocaine binges, dodgy deals and epic booze benders that make movie The Wolf Of Wall Street look like a poodle. * The Sun *
This book is going to annoy and offend a lot of people, with good reason. * Euromoney.com *
