Product Information

Dupont University--the Olympian halls of learning housing the cream of America's youth, the roseate Gothic spires and manicured lawns suffused with tradition . . . Or so it appears to beautiful, brilliant Charlotte Simmons, a sheltered freshman from North Carolina. But Charlotte soon learns, to her mounting dismay, that for the uppercrust coeds of Dupont, sex, Cool, and kegs trump academic achievement every time.As Charlotte encounters Dupont's privileged elite--her roommate, Beverly, a Groton-educated Brahmin in lusty pursuit of lacrosse players; Jojo Johanssen, the only white starting player on Dupont's godlike basketball team, whose position is threatened by a hotshot black freshman from the projects; the Young Turk of Saint Ray fraternity, Hoyt Thorpe, whose heady sense of entitlement and social domination is clinched by his accidental brawl with a bodyguard for the governor of California; and Adam Geller, one of the Millennial Mutants who run the university's "independent" newspaper and who consider themselves the last bastion of intellectual endeavor on the sex-crazed, jock-obsessed campus--she gains a new, revelatory sense of her own power, that of her difference and of her very innocence, but little does she realize that she will act as a catalyst in all of their lives.With his signature eye for detail, Tom Wolfe draws on extensive observation of campuses across the country to immortalize college life in the '00s. "I Am Charlotte Simmons "is the much-anticipated triumph of America's master chronicler.

Reviews
"Our pre-eminent social realist...trains his all-seeing eye on the institution of the American university. . . . Wolfe's rhapsodic prose style finds its perfect target in academia's beer-soaked bacchanals."--Henry Alford, Newsday "Wolfe is one of the greatest literary stylists and social observers of our much observed postmodern era. . . . A rich, wise, absorbing, and irresistible novel."--Lev Grossman, Time "Tom Wolfe has scored a slam dunk with his...attention to style, the rule-bending punctuation, the deftness of slang dialogue, and that biting satire."--Steve Garbarino, New York Post "Wolfe's dialogue is some of the finest in literature, not just fast but deep. He hears the cacophony of our modern lives."--Susan Salter Reynolds, Los Angeles Times "[A] hilarious, exclamation-point filled novel."--John Freeman, Time Out New York "Brilliant . . . I couldn't stop reading it. . . . Tom Wolfe can make words dance and sing and perform circus tricks, he can make the reader sigh with pleasure."--Michael Dirda, The Washington Post "A lot of fun . . . Hilarious."--Francine Prose, Los Angeles Times Book Review "Tom Wolfe remains a peerless satirist. Alone among our fiction writers he is actively writing the human comedy, American-style, on a grand Dickensian scale."--David Lehman, Bloomberg News "Scathingly clear-eyed, often very funny take on college life." --Robert Siegel, NPR, All Things Considered "Dazzingly vivid . . . Tom Wolfe has served up another of his broadly entertaining novels."--Adam Begley, The New York Observer "His most fully realized and hands-down funniest work of fiction."--Patrick Beach, Austin American-Statesman "Captivating . . . Sit back and enjoy the ride."--Tom Walker, The Denver Post "Tom Wolfe is America's greatest living novelist."--Joseph Bottum, The Weekly Standard "Rollicking . . . Just as Americans continue to read A Farewell to Arms or The Great Gatsb y, we'll be reading I Am Charlotte Simmons for many years. . . . Professors like to complain that they get a year older every fall, while students always remain the same. Add I Am Charlotte Simmons to that magic circle of campus phenomena unlikely to age."--Carlin Romano, The Philadelphia Inquirer Praise for the Bonfire of the Vanities "Wolfe leaves no head unbashed . . . His eye and ear for detailed observation are incomparab≤ and observation is to the satirist what bullets are to a gun." - The Boston Sunday Globe "Human comedy, on a skyscraper scale and at a taxi-meter pace."- Newsweek "Richly entertaining . . . A superb human comedy and the first novel ever to get contemporary New York, in all its arrogance and shame and heterogeneity and insularity, exactly right." - Washington Post Book World Praise for A Man in Full "This novel contains passages as powerful and as beautiful as anything written-not merely by contemporary American novelists but by any American novelist.... The book is as funny as anything Wolfe has ever written; at the same time it is also deeply, strangely affecting."- The New York Times Book Review "Wolfe is a genius in full." - People "Superior...utterly engrossing." - USA Today, Our pre-eminent social realist...trains his all-seeing eye on the institution of the American university. . . . Wolfe's rhapsodic prose style finds its perfect target in academia's beer-soaked bacchanals., Wolfe is one of the greatest literary stylists and social observers of our much observed postmodern era. . . .
