Highly entertaining’ - Los Angeles TimesPatrick Radden Keefe’s work has been recognized by prizes including the Orwell Prize and the Baillie Gifford for his meticulously reported and engaging work on the many ways people behave badly. Rogues brings together a dozen of his most celebrated articles from the New Yorker. As Keefe observes in his preface: ‘They reflect on some of my abiding preoccupations: crime and corruption, secrets and lies'.Keefe explores the intricacies of forging $150,000 vintage wines; examines whether a whistleblower who dared to expose money laundering at a Swiss bank is a hero or a liar; spends time in Vietnam with Anthony Bourdain; chronicles the quest to bring down a cheerful international black-market arms merchant; and profiles a passionate death-penalty attorney who represents the ‘worst of the worst’, among other works of literary journalism.The appearance of his byline in the New Yorker is always an event; collected here for the first time readers can see how his work forms an always enthralling yet also deeply human portrait of criminals and rascals, as well as those who stand up to them.‘Eminently bingeable, religiously fact-checked and seductively globetrotting ’ - The ObserverLanguage: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 197mmItem Length: 130mmItem Width: 25mmItem Weight: 262gAuthor: Patrick Radden KeefeGenre: Literary CriticismTopic: Social Sciences, Society & Culture, Law & Politics, Business & Finance, BiographyRelease Year: 2023 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
