Belfort Jordan

Wall Street, the temple of financial speculation: no one knows its mafia-like underbelly, its scandalous secrets, and its enormous scams better than Jordan Belfort. Nicknamed, not so long ago, the Wolf of Wall Street, he had become one of the richest men in New York. Yet the FBI took an interest in him and arrested him. With a keen sense of narrative and rhythm, Belfort recounts his tragicomic story, from his beginnings as a trader to his downfall, mentioning along the way his decadent parties and drug abuse of all kinds. A rock star's life. By its very excess, this autobiography of the most demented of financial sharks will remain in the annals of history.
