Summary
"As her husband lies dying, Van and her children circle like vultures, all wanting their share of the family business. As the family scramble, scheme and dream their way into positions of power in their swank 80s palazzo, they discover that their empire rests on shaky foundations. And the enemy is within."--Back cover.
"Written in 1910 by Maxim Gorky, Vassa Zheleznova has been magnificently transplanted by award-winning writer Jonathan Gavin into 1980s Australia. Dark and savagely funny, The Business explores the grotesque lengths to which some idnividuals will go to protect their own position."--Back cover....
