<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Harry March is something of a wreck and more than half nuts. Up until now, he has lived peacefully on an island in the Hamptons with his talking dog, Hector, a born-again Evangelical and unapologetic capitalist. But March's life starts to completely unravel when Lapham--an ostentatious multimillionaire who made his fortune on asparagus tongs--begins construction of a gargantuan mansion just across the way. To Harry, Lapham's monstrosity-to-be represents the fetid and corrupt excess that has ruined modern civilization. Which means, quite simply, that this is war.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"[An] uproarious debut.... Rosenblatt wields his satiric saber with skill and compassion. A-."--<em>Entertainment Weekly</em><br><br>"Lapham Rising brims with word play."--Weekly Standard<br><br>"This is Mr. Rosenblatt's first novel. I hope it's not his last."--New York Sun<br>
