WEALTH, FAME, LOVE AND DECEIT IN RETAILING,
This review is from: Carriage Trade (Paperback)
This is the third book I've read written by Stephen Birmingham and not the last. Carriage Trade can be called a soap-opera type book, but from start to finish, Birmingham keeps the surprises coming. After retailing tycoon Si Tarkington is found floating in his pool, his family and business partners (and lovers) unravel his mysterious life...one of past convictions, affairs and trust in the wrong people. His beautiful wife, Consuelo, is not just "icing on the cake", but perhaps the strongest character in this book. Their daughter, Miranda, is undecided about her abilities to take over her father's high trend department store and uncovers material throughout the novel to turn the tables. A behind the scenes look at the world of retailing will leave you wondering just what really goes on in your favorite department store??
