- Fiction, Capitalists and financiers in fiction, Commercial crimes in fiction, Capitalists and financiers
From a review of the Anthony Trollope canon in The Economist (2020/04/08 edition): *“The Way We Live Now” (1875) is as much a portrait of the last few decades as it is of the high Victorian age, and every bit as addictive as HBO’s hit series “Succession”.
