Sarah grew up in Dallas, Texas, and was brought up in a household of modest chaos. Sarah’s mother was the center of her small universe, but eventually decided to go back to school and become a therapist. Fights between Sarah’s parents were regular and unpleasant. Her older brother, Josh, was brilliant, creating academic expectations for Sarah that she could never quite meet. Sarah began drinking small amounts of beer at the age of six, getting drunk for the first time at twelve. Sarah loved the freedom and confidence that alcohol gave her. In high school, Sarah’s habits finally matched those of her peers, where accessing and consuming alcohol became a normal way to spend time…   PLEASE NOTE: This is a  summary and analysis  of the book and NOT the original book.    Inside this Instaread Summary & Analysis of Blackout • Summary of book • Introduction to the Important People in the book • Analysis of the Themes and Author’s Style     About the Author With Instaread, you can get the summary and analysis of a book in 15 minutes.

Au milieu des années 90, au bord d'une luxueuse plage de Floride, un petit groupe de jeunes banquiers diplômés en économie ou en mathématiques de la JP Morgan (parmi lesquels la jeune Anglaise Blythe Masters) se réunit pour inventer de nouveaux produits financiers basés sur les crédits dérivés. Au cours de ce séminaire sera inventé le Credit Default Swap (permutation de l'impayé), aussi révolutionnaire que destructeur, et qui permettra aux banques de prêter de l'argent à l'infini pendant 15 ans sans se soucier du risque d'impayés. Dans cet ouvrage incroyablement visionnaire, Gillian Tett, la journaliste vedette du Financial Times, raconte pas à pas l'enchaînement des événements tels qu'ils ont été vécus en interne au sein de la JP Morgan depuis l'invention des Credit Default Swaps en 1994 jusqu'à l'effondrement de Wall Street le 29 septembre 2008 qui se soldera par des faillites bancaires à la chaîne. Un livre littéralement proche d'un thriller, qui nous montre comment la cupidité des banquiers a scié la branche sur laquelle ils étaient tranquillement assis. |
