Traders - marvellous
I bought this book in a thrift store in Chicago on my vacation from Germany. This book is very authentic as I can tell because I interned at the CBOT in summer 1999.

Should have been a guy...
Placed in the fast lane world of commodities trading, TRADERS is, itself, fast paced. Brashler obviously knows this milieu. However, he does NOT present a believable voice for his heroine.

I bought this book in a thrift store in Chicago on my vacation from Germany. This book is very authentic as I can tell because I interned at the CBOT in summer 1999. A few things described are very fictious but on the other hand a lot views in this novel can and are definetely true. During my read I can say that people that are interested in all intrigues concerning the life of a trader and to-become-trader or co-worker at a commodity exchange sized like the CBOT will be very interested in this book. I believe it is very sad that it is out of print, so maybe someone will take care of this in the near future.

Storyline is predictable: Intelligent, ambitious, but at heart, naive heroine learns what life is really all about in the world of big money. You can fill in the rest... Not bad but nothing special either. |
