Paperback. Condition: New. Andrejs Upits's classic novel Gold, set in Latvia still under Tsarist rule and on the brink of the First World War, is perhaps more topical in recent decades than it has been for a long time. In fact it was dusted off in the 1990s precisely because of its description of how society behaves in untrammel…led free markets. The poor and hardworking Sveilis family suddenly inherit great wealth, and this leads them on a journey in which desire and disappointment are always in control, and the author avoids many of the readers' expectations and all stock narratives. Upits is forensic in his naturalistic analysis of a society contending with extremes of both wealth and poverty, and how this is undermining what was left of a moral society. High on a bull market and a flood of quality alcohol, the nouveau riche are in expansive mood but what they experience is not happiness but jaded insatiability they are unable to control. These hellraisers and presumed winners in the struggle for wealth are the subject of this highly original novel, and the losers are barely mentioned except in its brief first section. The pace and the detailed observation of psychological developments carries readers along through a narrative whose power resides in its lack of moralism. They are left to make their own judgements.
