Mark Singer – författare

'Hilariously scathing' ObserverNew Yorker reporter Mark Singer's blisteringly funny, close-up profile of President-elect Donald Trump - mogul, showman, braggart, unrestrained id and now leader of the free world - is the ultimate portrait of the man who has everything, except an inner life.'Gets under the skin of Trump ... An amusing but also terrifying portrayal of a narcissist, with only a fleeting grasp of reality' The Times'One of the best pieces of writing about Trump ... a classic of the genre' Vice'Offers clearer insight than any of the detailed biographies written over the years ... very funny ... excellent at describing the disturbing strangeness of Trump's existence' Daily Telegraph

Desde que Donald Trump se sumó a la carrera por la presidencia de Estados Unidos —en una rueda de prensa a la que asistieron actores pagados y en la que calumnió a los migrantes mexicanos— ha monopolizado los titulares de los periódicos y se ha convertido en el centro de una de las elecciones más extrañas y alarmantes de la historia norteamericana.No siempre fue así. En 1996 el veterano colaborador del New Yorker, Mark Singer, realizó un perfil del pintoresco personaje. En esa época, Trump era tan sólo un megalómano mentiroso de manhattan y un fracasado operador de casinos que intentaba recuperarse de los procedimientos legales de quiebra que le exigían hacer un inventario de su hogar: un rascacielos que lleva su nombre. Mientras conversaba con Trump en sus oficinas, sus pisos, sus coches e incluso en un avión privado, Singer se descubrió a sí mismo fascinado con este hombre que “alcanzó el lujo máximo: una existencia sin el perturbador rumor de un alma”.En este libro, el autor actualiza el célebre perfil y relata cómo su publicación significó una continua provocación para Donald Trump, quien pasó de ser un bufón estridente a una amenaza, un multimillonario que pretende volverse el guardián del orden mundial.
