Wolfe's sharp observations on sexuality, technology, and identity will resonate with those who appreciate a bold examination of societal trends and human behavior.
P.J. O'Rourke has a knack for infusing humor into the most serious of topics, and in "None of My Business," he does just that with the complex world of finance. If terms like equity and liabilities make your eyes glaze over, O'Rourke's wit can keep you engaged and even laughing as you navigate through what could have been an intimidating subject. It's for anyone looking for a lighter, relatable take on money matters, without the jargon-laden snooze-fest.
