The Death of Power As We Know It - Elizabeth Day
from Open Book with Anthony Scaramucci · host SALT & Goalhanger
Today we've got the brilliant Elizabeth Day on Open Book, and let me tell you, her new novel One of Us is the book of the year — a razor-sharp, hilariously dark dive into the corruption of power, class warfare, and rich people behaving very, very badly. Elizabeth breaks it all down with the kind of insight that will make you rethink everything you thought you knew about who's really running the world — and why it's all falling apart. Elizabeth Day is the author of The Party and other books, as well as one of the most influential podcasters at work today. Her show, How to Fail, has become a go-to hitmaker, launching authors such as Meg Mason and Glennon Doyle onto the bestseller list in the UK.
