    Summary: 
    Wolff dissects some of the major monsters, media whores, and vainglorious figures of our time. His scalpel opens their lives, careers, and always equivocal endgames, forming a mesmerizing portrait of the hubris, overreach, and nearly inevitable self-destruction of some of the most famous faces from the Clinton era through the Trump years. When the mighty fall, they do it with drama and with a dust cloud of gossip. The result is an examination of how the quest for fame, notoriety, and power became the driving force of culture and politics, the drug that alters all public personalities. -- adapted from jacket
