New York: Random House 1999. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good/Very Good. 8vo or 8� Medium Octavo: 7�" x 9�" tall. Chip Kidd Jacket Design; Brigitte Lacombe Author Photo. 659 pp. Solidly bound copy and dj with minimal external wear crisp pages and clean text. Synopsis: As big and exciting as the next century this is a novel of real life at our giddy feverish topsy-turvy edge of the millennium. Turn of the Century is a good old-fashioned novel about the day after tomorrow--an uproarious exquisitely observed panorama of our world as the twentieth century morphs into the twenty-first transforming family marriage and friendship and propelled by the supercharged global businesses and new technologies that make everyone's lives shake and spin a little faster. As the year 2000 progresses George Mactier and Lizzie Zimbalist ten years married are caught up in the whirl of their centrifugally accelerating lives. George is a TV producer for the upstart network MBC launching a truly and weirdly groundbreaking new show that blurs the line between fact and fiction. Lizzie is a software entrepreneur dealing with the breakneck pleasures and pains of running her own company in an industry where the rules are rewritten daily. Rocketing between Los An-geles and Seattle with occasional stopovers at home in Manhattan for tag-team parenting of their three children George and Lizzie are the kind of businesspeople who growing up in the sixties and seventies never dreamed they would end up in business. They're too busy to spend the money that's rolling in and too smart not to feel ambivalent about their crazed high-gloss existences but nothing seems to slow the roller-coaster momentum of their inter-secting lives and careers. However after Lizzie recovering from a Microsoft deal gone awry becomes a confidante and adviser to George's boss billionaire media mogul Harold Mose the couple discovers that no amount of sophisticated spin can obscure basic instincts: envy greed suspicion sexual temptation--and maybe love. When they and their children are finally drawn into a thrilling high-tech corporate hoax that sends Wall Street reeling and makes one person very very rich George and Lizzie can only marvel at life's oversized surprises and hold on for dear life. Like Tom Wolfe's Bonfire of the Vanities Kurt Andersen's Turn of the Century lays bare the follies of our age with laser-beam precision creating memorable characters and dissecting the ways we think speak and navigate this new era of extreme capitalism and mind-boggling technology. Entertaining imaginative knowing and wise Turn of the Century is a richly plotted comedy of manners about the way we live now. <br/> <br/> Random House hardcover
