- Summary:
- Yuppies returns to 1980s New York, when a generation of young bankers, lawyers, and gentrifiers rebuilt the city, and the country, on massively unequal terms. Through their work, their lifestyles, and their politics, yuppies cemented Wall Street's takeover of American life and secured their place atop a brutal economic hierarchy.
