New Releases by Michael Wolff

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The author of Fire and Fury delivers a breathtaking insider account of the 2024 Trump campaign—undoubtedly the wildest, most unpredictable campaign in U.S. history, including multiple criminal trials, two assassination attempts, and a sudden switch of opponents. All or Nothing takes readers on a journey accompanying Donald Trump on his return to power as only Michael Wolff, the foremost chronicler of the Trump era, can do it. As Trump cruelly and swiftly dispatches his opponents, heaps fire and fury on the prosecutors and judges who are pursuing him, and mocks and belittles anyone in his way, including the president of the United States, this becomes not just another election but perhaps, both sides say, the last election. The stakes could not be clearer: Either the establishment destroys Donald Trump, or he destroys the establishment. What soon emerges is a split-screen reality: On one side, a picture that could not be worse for Trump: an inescapable, perhaps mortal legal quagmire; on the other side, an entirely positive political outlook: overwhelming support within his party, ever-rising polling numbers, and lackluster opposition. Through personal access to Trump’s inner circle, Wolff details a behind-the-scenes, revealing landscape of Trumpworld and its unlikely cast of primary players as well as the candidate himself, the most successful figure in American politics since, arguably, Roosevelt, but who might easily seem to be raving mad. Threading a needle between tragedy and farce, the fate of the nation, the liberal ideal, and democracy itself, All or Nothing paints a gobsmacking portrait of a man whose behavior is so unimaginable, so uncontrolled, so unmindful of cause and effect, that it defeats all the structures and logic of civic life. And yet here in one of the most remarkable comebacks in American political history, Trump is victorious. This is not just a story about politics: It is a vivid exposé of the demons, discord, and anarchy—the fire, fury, and future—of American life under Trump.

Com acesso aos bastidores da Fox News, Michael Wolff expõe as rivalidades e traições por trás do poderoso canal de notícias dos EUA. Comandado por um homem inescrupuloso e uma família disfuncional, com apresentadores radicais e em conflito, ele ditou os rumos do conservadorismo no país, e inspirou a criação da premiada série Succession, da HBO, disponível na Max. "Os livros de Michael Wolff foram a minha base e porta de entrada para trabalhar em Succession." — Jeremy Strong Até recentemente, a família Murdoch e a polêmica equipe da Fox News representavam o mais influente conglomerado de mídia dos Estados Unidos. Por quase três décadas, a empresa impulsionou carreiras políticas — como a de Donald Trump — e alterou o balanço de poder do país. Agora, esse império está ruindo. Rupert Murdoch, o nonagenário bilionário australiano, está em declínio, preocupado com seu legado. Seus descendentes brigam pela sucessão. O apresentador Tucker Carlson, afastado das câmeras, considera concorrer à presidência, enquanto outra estrela da emissora, Sean Hannity, planeja reeleger Trump contra a vontade dos chefes, e a âncora Laura Ingraham luta para sobreviver. Entre herdeiros em pé de guerra e processos judiciais que abalam a base financeira e a reputação da rede, Michael Wolff documenta, de forma implacável, a história de uma dinastia perto do fim.

Rupert Murdoch, oprichter van ''s werelds grootste en invloedrijkste mediaconglomeraat News Corp, gaat na zeventig jaar met pensioen. Hij heeft onmiskenbaar een stempel gedrukt op het politieke landschap van de afgelopen halve eeuw. Zijn Fox News veranderde het internationale medialandschap voorgoed. Door van nieuws pure sensatie te maken introduceerde Murdoch het populisme in zowel de Verenigde Staten als Europa, met als hoogtepunt (of dieptepunt) de onvoorwaardelijke steun voor het presidentschap van Donald Trump. Murdoch was betrokken bij de Brexit, hielp Trump aan de macht en overleefde in zijn carrière schandaal na schandaal. Nu, aan het eind van zijn actieve loopbaan, laat hij zijn dynastie op losse schroeven achter, met rechtszaken, een verwoeste reputatie en een intense familiestrijd die de hitserie Succession inspireerde. In het even meeslepende als afschrikwekkende De val openbaart Michael Wolff de omstandigheden en personen die uiteindelijk zullen leiden tot de ondergang van Fox News en News Corp. Michael Wolff is de auteur van onder meer de internationale bestsellers Vuur en woede en Staat van beleg over president Trump, waarvan alleen al in Nederland meer dan 60.000 exemplaren werden verkocht. Hij woont in Manhattan. ''Michael Wolffs boeken vormden de basis voor mijn rol als Kendall Roy in Succession.'' Jeremy Strong ''Vermakelijk venijnig en perfect getimed. In Wolffs relaas is Murdoch een soort ongelukkige Frankenstein, die het monster verafschuwt dat hij heeft losgelaten in de wereld, maar waarvan hij niet precies weet hoe hij het moet bevechten.'' The New York Times ''Bloedstollend. Een smeuïge kijk op de ondergang van Fox News. Wolff geeft zijn typische, onverbloemde kijk op de machtige persoonlijkheden aan de top van de zender. Hij heeft er geen moeite mee om zich in te laten met Amerika''s gruwelijkste mensen, of om ze vervolgens schaamteloos af te maken ten dienste van zijn verhaal.'' The Washington Post

We can pray according to the will of God when we pray His prayers, and new focus to capture our wandering thoughts and intimacy with Him can result.

New York Times Bestseller “All happy families are alike; each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” —Leo Tolstoy, Anna Karenina “Michael Wolff’s books were my foundation and port of entry for working on Succession.” —Jeremy Strong (“Kendall Roy”) Meet the Murdochs and the disastrously dysfunctional family of Fox News. Until recently, they formed the most powerful media and political force in the land, for better or worse. Now their empire is cracking up and crashing down. For almost three decades, Fox News has not only made political careers (see: President Donald J. Trump) but also fundamentally altered the political landscape of the United States. It is a truism: as Fox goes, so goes the nation—into further divisiveness and awash in fake news, a gleefully polarizing company. But just as Fox has pushed America apart, now it too is coming apart. As is the family dynasty behind it. In his irresistible trilogy on the chaotic presidency of Donald Trump—Fire and Fury, Siege, and Landslide—the gadfly journalist Michael Wolff led readers deep into the twisted corridors of the White House. Now, drawing on years of unprecedented access to the Murdoch family and key players in the world of Fox, he plunges us behind the scenes of another empire of influence, and the result is astonishing and unforgettable. Here is Rupert Murdoch, the ninety-two-year-old Australian billionaire—a fading titan, concerned about his legacy but more concerned about profits. Here are his contentious progeny, jockeying to take over when the old man is gone. Here is star anchor Tucker Carlson, hiding out in his island homes, considering a run for the presidency while his bosses have other plans for him. Sean Hannity, the richest man in television, has his own plans: to put the former POTUS back in office, against the bosses’ wishes. Meanwhile, Laura Ingraham is just trying to survive in the last man’s man’s world. Empires fall. Kingdoms come to an end. As lawsuits pummel the financial bedrock and reputation of the network, anchors scramble, and the battling Murdoch heirs make the Roys of TV’s Succession seem downright Brady Bunch, Michael Wolff documents, in riveting and revelatory real time, the final days of Fox News.

Wolff's book defends the Kantian idea of a "general logic" whose principles underlie special systems of deductive logic. It thus undermines "logical pluralism," which tolerates the co-existence of divergent systems of modern logic without asking for consistent common principles. Part I of Wolff’s book identifies the formal language in which the most general principles of logic must be expressed. This language turns out to be a version of syllogistic language already used by Aristotle. The universal validity of logical principles, as well as the translatability of other logical languages into this language, are shown to depend only on the meanings of its logical vocabulary. Part II of the book answers the metalogical question concerning the deductive relation between general logic and special logical systems, which also have their own (less general) principles. This part identifies the rules according to which logical rules can be derived from principles. The main result of the book is that the highest principles of logic and metalogics are provided by the syllogistic, when properly understood.

FROM TOURETTE'S TO TRIUMPH. FROM CANCER TO CURE. FROM THE SEGREGATED SOUTH TO COMMANDING STAGES AROUND THE WORLD, JAZZ MASTER, MICHAEL WOLFF'S JOURNEY BEGINS WITH PURE GRIT AND ENDS IN PERFECT VICTORY. Award winning jazz musician Michael Wolff's journey nearly ended six years ago at Mount Sinai Beth Israel Hospital in lower Manhattan. After being worked on by doctors and nurses for most of the night, Wolff, with the perfect timing only a world class musician would have, regained consciousness just in time to hear one of the doctors ask his wife if he had a DNR. Before she could even ask what that was, Wolff used his last ounce of energy to gasp, "Resuscitate me!" After being treated for the wrong cancer for a year and a half, it was discovered that Wolff had an ultra-rare, untreatable cancer called histiocytic sarcoma and had three months to live. Fortunately, he was someone accustomed to surviving the odds. Wolff had already survived a painful childhood overshadowed by Tourette's Syndrome, where his brilliance as a jazz pianist and passion for music saw him through. He went on the road at nineteen, not only performing with some of the great luminaries of Jazz, but also conducting over twenty-five symphony orchestras worldwide. In 1989, Wolff was chosen to be the musical director of Arsenio Hall's groundbreaking late-night talk show, which was extravagantly praised for its diversity of musical guests and brilliant house band. It was through The Arsenio Hall show that Wolff became a household name and where he met and eventually married Actor/Writer/Director Polly Draper when she was a guest on the show. (Their two sons, Nat and Alex Wolff are now highly successful actors and musicians in their own right, so the talent was passed on to the next generation.) In the meantime, Wolff has released twenty-one albums to critical and popular acclaim, written award-winning scores to movies and television series and has managed to beat an untreatable cancer. His compelling story begins with his fish out-of-water story in the segregated South, then moves to politically turbulent Berkley, California in the early sixties and then it takes him around the world as he earns his stripes as a world class Jazz musician. On That Note is more than a memoir. It is like a Jazz score with words, taking the reader on the wild journey of Wolff's singular life. It is a life driven by a passion for music and a passion for being alive. Sometimes hilarious and sometimes harrowing, Wolff's story instantly sweeps us up with it and charms us with a unique voice. Many books claim to be "page turners." This one actually delivers.

If you can judge a book by its enemies, Too Famous could be an instant classic. Bestselling author of Fire and Fury and chronicler of the Trump White House Michael Wolff dissects more of the major monsters, media whores, and vainglorious figures of our time. His scalpel opens their lives, careers, and always equivocal endgames with the same vividness and wit he brought to his disemboweling of the former president. These brilliant and biting profiles form a mesmerizing portrait of the hubris, overreach, and nearly inevitable self-destruction of some of the most famous faces from the Clinton era through the Trump years. When the mighty fall, they do it with drama and with a dust cloud of gossip. This collection pulls from new and unpublished work—recent reporting about Tucker Carlson, Jared Kushner, Harvey Weinstein, Ronan Farrow, and Jeffrey Epstein—and twenty years of coverage of the most notable egomaniacs of the time—among them, Hillary Clinton, Michael Bloomberg, Andrew Cuomo, Rudy Giuliani, Arianna Huffington, Roger Ailes, Boris Johnson, and Rupert Murdoch—creating a lasting statement on the corrosive influence of fame. Ultimately, this is an examination of how the quest for fame, notoriety, and power became the driving force of culture and politics, the drug that alters all public personalities. And how their need, their desperation, and their ruthlessness became the toxic grease that keeps the world spinning. You know the people here by name and reputation, but it’s guaranteed that after this book you will never see them the same way again or fail to recognize the scorched earth the famous leave behind them.

Michael Wolff, onder Amerikaanse republikeinen de meest gevreesde journalist van het land, flikt het hem nog één keer: dieper dan ooit heeft hij weten binnen te dringen in het Witte Huis, in de inner circle van de regering van Donald Trump. Het resultaat is Aardverschuiving. Het beschrijft de opmaat naar de presidentsverkiezingen van 3 november 2020; de avond en nacht van de verkiezingen zelf, waar we letterlijk van binnen het Witte Huis meemaken wat nog nergens is beschreven; de ontkenningen in de weken en maanden erna; de vele kansloze rechtszaken, waarbij slechts een handjevol middelmatige advocaten bereid is Trump bij te staan, onder wie Rudy Giuliani, die al meer dan drie decennia niet in een rechtbank heeft gepleit; en tot slot natuurlijk de bestorming van het Capitool op 6 januari en de manier waarop Trump die uren beleefde. Aardverschuiving is een verbijsterend boek. Het leest als een politieke thriller, als een verhaal dat bijna onvoorstelbaar is - totdat je beseft dat het allemaal echt heeft plaatsgevonden. Michael Wolff sprak met vele mensen in de directe omgeving van Trump - en zelfs met Donald Trump persoonlijk. Michael Wolff is de auteur van onder meer de internationale bestsellers Vuur en woede en Staat van beleg, waarvan alleen al in Nederland 60.000 exemplaren werden verkocht. Hij heeft vijf kinderen en woont in Manhattan. ''Vuur en woede is een sluw, hilarisch portret van een oppervlakkige man, wiens zwarte gat van een behoeftig, hebzuchtig ego de wereld praktisch gezien heeft verzwolgen.'' The Guardian ''Vuur en woede wervelt en swingt.'' NRC Handelsblad

An instant New York Times bestseller. Critics agree: Michael Wolff’s Landslide is THE book on Trump. “Landslide . . . is the one to leap upon. Smart, vivid and intrepid . . .” —The New York Times “I inhaled Landslide, gobbled it up.” —Slate “Wow. Just wow . . .” —Evening Standard “Cruel, unforgiving, muckraking, scandalous. I couldn’t stop reading it.”—The Telegraph We all witnessed some of the most shocking and confounding political events of our lifetime: the careening last stage of Donald J. Trump’s reelection campaign, the president’s audacious election challenge, the harrowing mayhem of January 6, the buffoonery of the second impeachment trial. But what was really going on in the inner sanctum of the White House during these calamitous events? What did the president and his dwindling cadre of loyalists actually believe? And what were they planning? Michael Wolff pulled back the curtain on the Trump presidency with his #1 bestselling blockbuster Fire and Fury. Now, in Landslide, he closes the door on the presidency with a final, astonishingly candid account. Wolff embedded himself in the White House in 2017 and gave us a vivid picture of the chaos that had descended on Washington. Almost four years later, Wolff finds the Oval Office even more chaotic and bizarre, a kind of Star Wars bar scene. At all times of the day, Trump, behind the Resolute desk, is surrounded by schemers and unqualified sycophants who spoon-feed him the “alternative facts” he hungers to hear—about COVID-19, Black Lives Matter protests, and, most of all, his chance of winning reelection. Once again, Wolff has gotten top-level access and takes us front row as Trump’s circle of plotters whittles down to the most enabling and the president reaches beyond the bounds of democracy as he entertains the idea of martial law and balks at calling off the insurrectionist mob that threatens the institution of democracy itself. As the Trump presidency’s hold over the country spiraled out of control, an untold and human account of desperation, duplicity, and delusion was unfolding within the West Wing. Landslide is that story as only Michael Wolff can tell it.

Michael Wolff, author of the bombshell bestseller Fire and Fury, once again takes us inside the Trump presidency to reveal a White House under siege. Just one year into Donald Trump’s term as president, Michael Wolff told the electrifying story of a White House consumed by controversy, chaos, and intense rivalries. Fire and Fury, an instant sensation, defined the first phase of the Trump administration; now, in Siege, Wolff has written an equally essential and explosive book about a presidency that is under fire from almost every side. At the outset of Trump’s second year as president, his situation is profoundly different. No longer tempered by experienced advisers, he is more impulsive and volatile than ever. But the wheels of justice are inexorably turning: Robert Mueller’s “witch hunt” haunts Trump every day, and other federal prosecutors are taking a deep dive into his business affairs. Many in the political establishment—even some members of his own administration—have turned on him and are dedicated to bringing him down. The Democrats see victory at the polls, and perhaps impeachment, in front of them. Trump, meanwhile, is certain he is invincible, making him all the more exposed and vulnerable. Week by week, as Trump becomes increasingly erratic, the question that lies at the heart of his tenure becomes ever more urgent: Will this most abnormal of presidencies at last reach the breaking point and implode? Both a riveting narrative and a brilliant front-lines report, Siege provides an alarming and indelible portrait of a president like no other. Surrounded by enemies and blind to his peril, Trump is a raging, self-destructive inferno—and the most divisive leader in American history.

Nel gennaio 2017, subito dopo l''insediamento di Donald Trump, Michael Wolff si era infilato nella Casa Bianca "come una mosca sul muro" per raccontare dall''interno, in quello che sarebbe diventato il bestseller mondiale Fuoco e furia, i primi mesi della presidenza americana più controversa del nostro tempo. Questo nuovo libro riparte da dove finiva il precedente: con Trump chiuso nella sua bolla in una Casa Bianca sotto assedio, mentre i suoi collaboratori più stretti o sperano di andarsene o sono sul punto di essere cacciati, il suo partito fa quadrato e allo stesso tempo cerca un''alternativa, il procuratore speciale Mueller conduce un''indagine sui contatti tra il suo comitato elettorale e la Russia, altri inquirenti federali potrebbero mettere a nudo i segreti dell''intera famiglia Trump e il mondo assiste sgomento alle oscillazioni della maggiore potenza mondiale alle prese con soggetti ben poco raccomandabili come Kim Jong-un, Vladimir Putin e il principe saudita Mohammad bin Salman. Grazie ai contatti di Wolff con membri dello staff della Casa Bianca, con i vecchi amici che ogni notte parlano per ore con il presidente, con l''anima nera Steve Bannon, l''ex capo stratega cacciato dall''amministrazione ma tuttora impegnato, per proprio conto, a "salvare la rivoluzione trumpiana", Assedio svela i retroscena delle vicende più sconcertanti della nostra epoca, in un dramma shakespeariano sempre in bilico fra la tragedia e la farsa.

Michael Wolff, autor do best-seller Fogo e fúria , nos leva mais uma vez aos bastidores do governo Trump para revelar uma Casa Branca cercada por todos os lados. Em O c erco, Wolff volta a escrever um livro explosivo sobre uma presidência que está sob fogo cruzado. No início do segundo ano de mandato, a situação de Trump mudou de forma radical. Ao deixar de ser apoiado por conselheiros experientes, ele se tornou mais impulsivo e instável do que nunca. Mas as engrenagens da justiça não param de funcionar: a "caça às bruxas" do procurador especial Robert Mueller assombrou o presidente, e outros promotores têm investigado a fundo seus negócios privados. Figuras políticas proeminentes de seu próprio partido — e até mesmo de sua equipe de governo — se voltaram contra ele e estão dispostas a derrubá-lo. A oposição, que se tornou maioria no Congresso americano nas eleições de meio de mandato, começa a ver a possibilidade de impeachment do presidente. Trump, por sua vez, tem certeza de que é inatingível, o que o torna ainda mais exposto e vulnerável. A cada semana, conforme o presidente se torna mais errático, uma questão se torna premente: será que Trump chega ao final do mandato? O cerco é uma narrativa envolvente, e uma investigação jornalística brilhante. Ao descrever as intrigas palacianas, os negócios suspeitos e as ameaças políticas, Wolff traça o retrato alarmante de uma presidência desgovernada. Sitiado pelos inimigos e alheio aos perigos ao seu redor, Trump é um personagem agressivo, autodestrutivo — e o líder que mais causou polarizações na sociedade norte-americana.

AV FÖRFATTAREN TILL DEN MILJONSÄLJANDE SUCCÉN FIRE AND FURY När Fire & Fury: Donald Trump & Vita huset inifrån publicerades kippade världen efter andan. Journalisten Michael Wolffs skildring av en labil president och dennes första år som commander-in-chief detonerade med full kraft. Trump blev rasande, upplagorna enorma. Under belägring: Trump i skottlinjen tar vid där den förra boken slutar. Den forne affärsmannen och tv-profilen attackeras nu från alla håll. Donald Trump har gjort sig av med sina politiskt erfarna rådgivare – ett drag som gör honom mer impulsiv och oförutsägbar än någonsin. En stor del av det politiska etablissemanget, liksom medlemmar av Trumps egen administration, har övergett honom. Omgiven av fiender, men fullt övertygad om att han är oövervinnerlig, förvandlas Donald Trump till ett rasande, destruktivt inferno. Under belägring: Trump i skottlinjen rapporterar direkt från fronten. Ett alarmerande och oförglömligt porträtt av en president som inte liknar någon annan. MICHAEL WOLFF är en prisbelönt amerikansk författare och journalist. Han har bland annat arbetat för New York Times, USA Today och Vanity Fair, samt tilldelats två National Magazine Awards. Michael Wolff bor i New York. »Oumbärlig läsning. Drar undan de få gardiner som fortfarande finns för Trump och Vita huset.« The Guardian »En bok som bekräftar vad de flesta redan har förstått: Att Trump inte bara är helt olämplig som president, utan att alla runt omkring honom också vet om det.« Michelle Goldberg, New York Times »Något av det mest underhållande som skrivits om politik. Du skrattar och skakar på huvudet under 336 sidor tills du minns att det inte är fiktion.« Niklas Ekdahl, DN

#1 New York Times Bestseller. Com acesso privilegiado à Casa Branca de Trump, Michael Wolff conta-nos a história da presidência mais controversa de todos os tempos. Os primeiros nove meses do mandato de Trump foram intempestivos, escandalosos e completamente fascinantes. Com acesso a informação privilegiada, Michael Wolff conta-nos a história impressionante deste mandato, tão imprevisível e escandaloso quanto o próprio presidente, e abre-nos as portas ao caos da sala oval. Entre as revelações chocantes contam-se as seguintes: - Qual é a verdadeira opinião da equipa de Trump sobre o presidente.- O que inspirou Trump a afirmar que o presidente Obama o tinha sob escuta. - Que motivo levou ao despedimento de James Comey, diretor do FBI. - Por que razão Steve Bannon, diretor de campanha, e o genro de Trump, Jared Kushner, não podiam estar na mesma sala. - Com o despedimento de Bannon, quem está à frente da estratégia da administração Trump?- Qual é o segredo de comunicação de Trump? - O que tem a administração de Trump em comum com o filme Os Produtores?

Innsideberetningen "Ild og vrede" fra Donald Trumps Hvite hus er en sensasjon og et viktig historisk tidsvitne. På grunnlag av et unikt kildemateriale gir Michael Wolff oss den fartsfylte og smått skandaløse fortellingen om Donald Trumps første ni måneder som verdens mektigste mann. Her er maktkamper et Shakespeare-drama verdig, med sjefstrateg Steve Bannon på den ene siden og Ivanka Trump og svigersønnen Jared Kushner på den andre. I midten står presidenten selv, som ikke følger noen av strategiene som blir lagt, men heller lytter til sin indre stemme. Blottet for impulskontroll sier han opp medarbeidere uten å ha konferert med andre, og sender illsinte Twitter-meldinger tidlig og sent. Når du tror bunnen er nådd, åpner det seg nye avgrunner av løgner, intriger og en forvirret president som verden ikke har sett maken til.

" C''est pire que ce que vous pouvez imaginer. Un idiot entouré de clowns. " La chronique stupéfiante et pourtant vraie d''une année de chaos au sommet du monde. Dans ce livre qui a mis le feu à l''Amérique et que Donald Trump a cherché à interdire, Michael Wolff nous entraîne dans les coulisses de la Maison Blanche et multiplie les révélations. Luttes de pouvoir, favoritisme, amateurisme, trahisons, scènes de famille... L''enquête démontre comment l''entourage intime et professionnel de Trump déploie une énergie considérable à camoufler l''ignorance, le manque de sang-froid et de scrupules du 45e président des États-Unis. Difficile de ne pas être saisi d''effroi pour la marche du monde quand les principaux conseillers de la Maison Blanche se vouent une haine froide, quand les efforts des diplomates sont anéantis en quelques tweets présidentiels, quand les collaborateurs jettent l''éponge ou sont renvoyés sur un coup de tête, quand la First Lady et sa belle-fille sont à couteaux tirés... Difficile d''être président des États-Unis quand on est le premier surpris par son élection. Michael Wolff a bénéficié d''un accès exceptionnel à la Maison Blanche, il a recueilli plus de deux cents témoignages de proches et de conseillers. Son livre relance le débat : Donald Trump est-il en capacité de gouverner ? Vendu à plus d''un million d''exemplaires et traduit dans trente et une langues, Le Feu et la Fureur est déjà entré dans l''Histoire.

Es ist das Buch, das die Präsidentschaft von Donald Trump erschüttert: Michael Wolffs «Feuer und Zorn» ist ein eindrucksvolles Sittengemälde der amerikanischen Politik unter Trump. Im Mittelpunkt ein Präsident, den seine Mitarbeiter wie ein kleines Kind behandeln und der umgeben ist von Inkompetenz, Intrigen und Verrat. Der Bestsellerautor Wolff beschreibt das Chaos, das in den ersten Monaten im Weißen Haus geherrscht hat, er enthüllt, wie nah die Russland-Verbindung an Trump herangerückt ist und wie es zum Rauswurf des FBI-Chefs James Comey kam. Und er liefert erstaunliche Details über das Privatleben dieses Präsidenten. Über zweihundert Interviews hat Wolff mit den engsten Mitarbeitern des US-Präsidenten geführt, darunter auch der ehemalige Chef-Berater Stephen Bannon: Noch nie ist es einem Journalisten gelungen, das Geschehen im Weißen Haus so genau nachzuzeichnen. Herausgekommen ist das einzigartige Porträt eines Präsidenten, der selbst nie damit gerechnet hat, die Wahl zu gewinnen. Michael Wolffs Bericht aus dem Weißen Haus unter Trump ist in den USA ein Bestseller: ein aktuelles politisches Buch, das sich wie ein Königsdrama von Shakespeare liest.

Retroscena clamorosi, segreti di famiglia e "Trump confidential" in un bestseller che ha fatto infuriare il presidente. Nel novembre 2016, l''elezione di Donald Trump alla presidenza degli Stati Uniti dà il via a un vero uragano nella politica americana, il più violento dai tempi del Watergate. Per documentarne gli effetti, Michael Wolff, giornalista di Washington che già durante la campagna elettorale aveva frequentato il quartier generale di Trump, si installa sui divani della Casa Bianca e osserva da vicino, "come una mosca sul muro", le azioni e le discussioni tra lo staff e il presidente. Il suo scopo è raccogliere confidenze esplosive non solo sulle faide interne che portano al licenziamento di strateghi di primo piano come Steve Bannon, l''anima nera della campagna elettorale, ma anche sui rapporti - al limite dell''alto tradimento - tra lo staff di Trump e la Russia e sui giudizi impietosi che i più stretti collaboratori danno del loro capo. Il risultato è un libro che Trump ha tentato invano di bloccare e che è diventato un caso mondiale perché racconta da una prospettiva unica la storia appassionante di un mandato imprevedibile e impetuoso quanto il presidente stesso.

Nog nooit is het eerste jaar van een Amerikaanse president zo stormachtig verlopen als dat van Donald Trump. Journalist Michael Wolff wist door te dringen tot de binnenste kringen van het Witte Huis en sprak er met tweehonderd ooggetuigen. In Vuur en woede vertelt hij het ware verhaal van de opvliegende en onvoorspelbare president en zijn entourage. Vuur en woede is een onschatbare bron van nieuwe informatie over de chaos rondom Donald Trump. Michael Wolff beschrijft onder meer wat Trumps medewerkers werkelijk van hem vinden; wat Trump ertoe bewoog om te beweren dat hij door zijn voorganger Obama werd afgeluisterd; wat de ware reden was van het ontslag van James Comey als FBI-directeur; wie het brein van Trumps regering is na het ontslag van Steve Bannon; en hoe je tot Trump moet doordringen. Nooit eerder heeft een Amerikaanse president zijn landgenoten zo tegen elkaar opgezet. En nooit eerder heeft een boek over een president zo veel stof doen opwaaien. Vuur en woede is het briljant geschreven, adembenemende relaas van een jaar van machtsstrijd en verdeeldheid in het machtigste land ter wereld. Michael Wolff schreef reeds zes boeken en schrijft voor onder meer Vanity Fair, New York, USA Today en The Guardian. Hij woont in New York en heeft vier kinderen.

"The closer the new media future gets, the further victory appears." --Michael Wolff This is a book about what happens when the smartest people in the room decide something is inevitable, and yet it doesn’t come to pass. What happens when omens have been misread, tea leaves misinterpreted, gurus embarrassed? Twenty years after the Netscape IPO, ten years after the birth of YouTube, and five years after the first iPad, the Internet has still not destroyed the giants of old media. CBS, News Corp, Disney, Comcast, Time Warner, and their peers are still alive, kicking, and making big bucks. The New York Times still earns far more from print ads than from digital ads. Super Bowl commercials are more valuable than ever. Banner ad space on Yahoo can be bought for a relative pittance. Sure, the darlings of new media—Buzzfeed, HuffPo, Politico, and many more—keep attracting ever more traffic, in some cases truly phenomenal traffic. But as Michael Wolff shows in this fascinating and sure-to-be-controversial book, their buzz and venture financing rounds are based on assumptions that were wrong from the start, and become more wrong with each passing year. The consequences of this folly are far reaching for anyone who cares about good journalism, enjoys bingeing on Netflix, works with advertising, or plans to have a role in the future of the Internet. Wolff set out to write an honest guide to the changing media landscape, based on a clear-eyed evaluation of who really makes money and how. His conclusion: The Web, social media, and various mobile platforms are not the new television. Television is the new television. We all know that Google and Facebook are thriving by selling online ads—but they’re aggregators, not content creators. As major brands conclude that banner ads next to text basically don’t work, the value of digital traffic to content-driven sites has plummeted, while the value of a television audience continues to rise. Even if millions now watch television on their phones via their Netflix, Hulu, and HBO GO apps, that doesn’t change the balance of power. Television by any other name is the game everybody is trying to win—including outlets like The Wall Street Journal that never used to play the game at all. Drawing on his unparalleled sources in corner offices from Rockefeller Center to Beverly Hills, Wolff tells us what’s really going on, which emperors have no clothes, and which supposed geniuses are due for a major fall.

From the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Fire and Fury and Siege: Trump Under Fire—Michael Wolff's wickedly funny chronicle of his rags-to-riches-to-rags adventure as a fledgling Internet entrepreneur exposes an industry powered by hype, celebrity, and billions of investment dollars, and notably devoid of profit-making enterprises. As he describes his efforts to control his company's burn rate—the amount of money the company consumes in excess of its income—Wolff offers a no-holds-barred portrait of unaccountable successes and major disasters, including the story behind Wired magazine and its fanatical founder, Louis Rossetto; the rise of America Online, perhaps the most dysfunctional successful company in history, and the humiliating inability of people such as Bill Gates to untangle the intricacies of the Web.
