Liar’s Poker

Liar’s Poker is a non-fiction, semi-autobiographical book written by the author Michael Lewis. In this book, the author describes his experiences as a bond salesman on Wall Street during the late 1980s. The book was first published in 1989 and is considered one of the books that defined Wall Street during the 1980s, along with Bryan Burrough and John Helyar’s Barbarians at the Gate: The Fall of RJR Nabisco, and the fictional The Bonfire of the Vanities by Tom Wolfe.
