About this listen

From the author of the #1 New York Times best seller What Should I Do with My Life?, Bombardiers is Po Bronson’s first novel, a devastating satire of the business world told through the lens of a crazed and colorful group of salespeople forced to push increasingly absurd financial products.

The Bonfire of the Vanities meets Catch-22 in this black comedy about corporate America. Welcome to the manic world of the bombardiers, a ragtag corps of bond traders who hustle financial products in the fast lane of the Information Superhighway.

Critic reviews

"Using vocal nuances to differentiate the characters, Wyman explains the complicated world of bond trading through dialogue. His characterizations of greedy managers and the oppressed (but very well paid) workers called "bombardiers" are perfect, and he subtly teaches listeners about their business. This title will make listeners want to hide their money in a mattress." (AudioFile)

Amazing book read it when it first came out and its even better the 2nd time around. My colleagues and myself all work in Financial services and this is too close to the mark for comfort
