Evan Osnos in Conversation with Rana Foroohar: The Haves and Have-Yachts: Dispatches on the Ultrarich

Overview

Join New York Times bestselling and National Book Award–winning journalist Evan Osnos for a conversation on wealth, the politics of inequality, and the new American Gilded Age — and Osnos’ new book, The Haves and Have-Yachts: Dispatches on the Ultrarich.

The ultrarich hold more of America’s wealth than they did in the heyday of the Carnegies and Rockefellers. How did we get here? In his incisively reported new book — consisting of essays originally published in The New Yorker — Osnos paints an unforgettable portrait a new class of American oligarchs, telling the story of how a small group of individuals amassed superyachts, luxury bunkers, and vast political influence while much the rest of the country was left in the dust.

In a special conversation, hear Osnos discuss his entertaining, unsettling, eye-opening new book — a wake-up call against inequality and complacency in the face of unchecked excess as the choices of the ultrarich ripple through our lives.

A book signing follows the talk.
