Wolff is the author of two very revealing books about his family of origin. The Duke of Deception tells of a father who repeatedly lied about his credentials to obtain all sorts of professional work, to the point of being jailed for impersonating a lawyer and a doctor. The Final Club, a truncated Bildungsroman set in Princeton University during the latter 1950s, is about the smugly snobbish sons of the USA's Protestant elite and their social antisemitism. (The Wolffs, I gather, have Jewish ancestry.) In some ways, it nicely updates Fitzgerald's This Side of Paradise by 40 years. It is also perhaps the last hurrah of the all-male Princeton (which first admitted women in 1969), and of elite higher education before the diversity revolution of the 1960s and 70s.132.181.160.42 (talk) 04:15, 26 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
