If you have ever envied the 1%, this book may be your cure. St. Aubyn was born to old, old English money, fathered by a man whose talents and intelligence were exceeded only by his sadism. With minor adjustments, the narrator and Patrick are one in the same. Readers will be awestruck by St. Aubyn's ability to observe humanity in all its horrors.
