They’re also pretty terrible with money, despite having encountered quite a lot of it. After an ill-advised scheme from their youngest son sees their grand private members club fall into financial troubles, they’re thrilled to meet the young, exotic Wolffs: an outrageously rich and suspiciously beautiful couple, recently arrived in London from New York. But over a series of debaucherous holidays, as the families’ lives and fates intertwine, it becomes increasingly difficult to tell who is really using who — and just what each player might do to maintain their sacred way of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn elegant and sparkling comedy of manners, \u003ci\u003eWhat Fun \u003c\/i\u003eglobe-trots around the playgrounds of the ultra-wealthy, from St. Moritz to Tuscany to Cap Ferret (only in August, of course), and discovers a family haunted across the generations by expectations, insecurities, absurdities and misplaced affections. Thick with observational humor and witty social commentary, it tells the story of a family, the story of a class, the story of a country—and the story of a club. Which, in this particular case, all turn out to be the exact same thing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":67722354262320,"sku":"ZE1vf0","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio MP3-CD","offer_id":67722354295088,"sku":"ZM1vf0","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audiobook [BD]","offer_id":67722354327856,"sku":"BD1vf0","price":28.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/1vf0-Square-cover.jpg?v=1788409125","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-1vf0","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
