#1 New York Times Bestseller "What makes Fire and Fury important is that it is not just about Trump, but a product of the same culture that produced Trump: It is 'reality' journalism, in the same way that Trump is a 'reality' character." -- The Atlantic "It is not a book. It is the book. If there is only one book Washington political reporters will read this year.then this is it. [Wolff] is a wicked stylist and keen observer, with a justly earned reputation for approaching his subjects with fangs bared and talons sharpened. A perfect karmic delivery system."-- The Weekly Standard "The pages of Wolff's book are littered with insults and intrigue, backstabbing and dysfunction.
"-- The Washington Post " An overnight sensation, a runaway best-seller, and the topic of every other political column, podcast, and dinner conversation." --The New Yorker " Fire and Fury has detonated as few contemporaneous political books ever have.A consequential work" -- The New York Times "To the many ironies of Donald Trump's presidency can be added the fact that a man who does not read books has helped cause a publishing sensation. Mr Wolff's muckraking skills, cattiness, cynicism and feel for human weakness, especially among the rich and famous, make him well-qualified for the job."-- The Economist "A genuine cultural phenomenon." --The New Republic "An undeniably juicy chronicle of a presidential administration that in just one year has been beset by numerous scandals and crises. [Wolff] gives the reader a you-are-there sense of events without resorting to an unneeded dramatic writing style." -- The San Francisco Chronicle "Wolff's lasting achievement here is not his headline-grabbing revelations but the skillful, enthralling, and utterly terrifying way he depicts the unqualified, unprepared, and downright unusual characters to be found wandering the halls of the White House in the first half of 2017 as well as their near bloodsport-level conflicts.
" -- Entertainment Weekly "What makes the book significant is its sly, hilarious portrait of a hollow man, into the black hole of whose needy, greedy ego the whole world has virtually vanished."-- The Guardian "The White House has naturally denied and decried Wolff's account, but even if it's only halfway accurate, it presents an appalling view of a frighteningly unqualified and unprepared gang that can't think straight."-- Kirkus Reviews.
