Beschreibung

<p><strong>Basis for the 2022 'Tony Award Best Play' winner</strong></p><p><strong>Magnificent in scope, internationally lauded, and transcendent, the novel in verse that inspired the sensational West End and Broadway play of the same name. <em>The Lehman Trilogy </em>follows the epic rise and fall of three generations of that infamous family and through them tells the story of American ambition and hubris. </strong></p><br><p>After leaving his native Bavaria, Henry Lehman arrives in America determined to make a better life. Sensing opportunity in the Deep South, he opens a textile shop in Alabama, laying the foundation for a dynasty that will come to dominate and define modern capitalism. Emanuel and his brother Mayer begin investing in anything and everything that will turn a profit, from cotton to coal to railroads to oil to airplanes?even at the expense of the very nation that forged them.</p><p>Spanning three generations and 150 years, <em>The Lehman Trilogy</em> is a moving epic that dares to tell the story of modern capitalism through the saga of the Lehman brothers and their descendants. Surprising and exciting, brilliant and inventive, Stefano Massini's masterpiece?like <em>Hamilton</em>?is a story of immigration, ambition, and success; it is the story of America itself from a daring and original perspective.</p><p><em>Translated from the Italian by Richard Dixon </em></p>
