Having made the U.S. financial crisis comprehensible for us all in The Big Short, Michael Lewis realised that he hadn't begun to get grips with the full story. How exactly had it come to hit the rest of the world in the face too? Just how broke are we really?Boomerang is a tragi-comic romp across Europe, in which Lewis gives full vent to his storytelling genius. The cheap credit that rolled across the planet between 2002 and 2008 was more than a simple financial phenomenon: it was temptation, offering entire societies the chance to reveal aspects of their characters they could not normally afford to indulge.Icelanders wanted to stop fishing and become investment bankers. The Greeks wanted to turn their country into a pinata stuffed with cash and allow as many citizens as possible to take a whack. The Irish wanted to stop being Irish. The Germans wanted to be even more German. Michael Lewis's investigation of bubbles across Europe is brilliantly, sadly hilarious. He also turns a merciless eye on America: on California, the epicentre of world consumption, where we see that a final reckoning awaits the most avaricious of nations too. This is the ultimate book of our times. It's time to brace ourselves for impact. And, with Michael Lewis, to laugh out loud while we're doing it.

What is Love? Divine, physical, spiritual. The Cadillac Diet recounts the search for and the reality of Love. This contemporary story is told through the vehicle of an announced return of Jesus at the site of the oldest city in the U.S. near the spot where Spanish explorers first landed 400 years ago. Michael Wade is a 40 something person recently moved to this small town who finds himself caught up in this announced return. He becomes involved with a reporter sent to cover the story and learns much about himself and what it it is God wants for us. The attention of the world is drawn to this site and attracts religious charlatans and the faithfully curious. The circus like atmosphere that develops results in, at least,one murder, much confusion and divine revelation. Also, there are some great recipes!
