About This Book

A young Manhattan art museum curator goes to questionable lengths to garner success in this dramatic novel by the author of Diary of a Yuppie.

In a world of opulent museums, lavish homes, and extravagant dreams, public spectacle pales before private intrigue, and the pursuit of power is the finest art. Welcome to the world of master storyteller Louis Auchincloss.

"In a small but distinguished museum on Central Park West, battle lines are arranged, pitting a brash young curator, imbued with a craving for personal grandeur and a lust for the directorship of the museum, against colleagues whose main concern is the integrity of the collections they guard . . . . Auchincloss . . . is a deft guide through a closed-in world." —Publishers Weekly
