Winner of the 2019 Lionel Gelber Prize 'Majestic, informative and
often delightful ... insights on every page' Yanis Varoufakis,
Observer The definitive history of the Great Financial Crisis, from
the acclaimed author of The Deluge and The Wages of Destruction. In
September 2008 the Great Financial Crisis, triggered by the
collapse of Lehman brothers, shook the world. A decade later its
spectre still haunts us. As the appalling scope and scale of the
crash was revealed, the financial institutions that had symbolised
the West's triumph since the end of the Cold War, seemed - through
greed, malice and incompetence - to be about to bring the entire
system to its knees. Crashed is a brilliantly original and assured
analysis of what happened and how we were rescued from something
even worse - but at a price which continues to undermine democracy
across Europe and the United States. Gnawing away at our
institutions are the many billions of dollars which were conjured
up to prevent complete collapse. Over and over again, the end of
the crisis has been announced, but it continues to hound us -
whether in Greece or Ukraine, whether through Brexit or Trump. Adam
Tooze follows the trail like no previous writer and has written a
book compelling as history, as economic analysis and as political
horror story.
