About this deal

Let me start off by saying that this book is incredibly well-researched, it's very much a Gucci encyclopedia, and though I can appreciate that, as I reader, for the most part I just felt like I was reading a very, very, very long article. This is an incredibly well researched book. The cover lures you in with the intrigue of a murder, but in reality there are only two chapters dedicated to that part of the Gucci lore, one at the beginning to describe the murder and one at the end to describe the trial. The rest of the book is about business: boardroom fiasco’s, family power struggles, legal battles and the world of investment banking. Tangcay, Jazz (December 17, 2021).
