‘The first deeply insightful political narrative of the Trump era.’
‘The first deeply insightful political narrative of the Trump era.’
‘Deeply reported and compulsively readable…Green is consistently interesting on the subject of Trump. But the real value of Devil’s Bargain is the story it tells about Bannon, some of which has been previously reported (not least by Green himself) but never so well synthesized or explained as it is here.’
‘Mr. Green is a talented reporter and a gifted storyteller. The anecdotes he records from the chaotic 2016 Trump campaign are both well chosen (they’re there for thematic reasons, not as gratuitous gossip) and brilliantly told.’
‘You won’t be able to put it down. I certainly couldn’t, surrendering a weekend I should have rightly spent with the kids. I spent it instead with a 63-year-old nationalist whom Time magazine all but called the shadow President of the United States … Addictive.’
‘Indispensable.’
‘Vividly pulls back the curtain on the symbiotic relationship between two of America’s most polarizing figures … Green is nothing but prescient.’
‘There will be revelations even for readers who follow the news avidly … but the book’s primary value lies in making Trump’s surprise victory seem unsurprising, and in showing Bannon as more than a one-dimensional caricature.’
‘In this important and vivid book, the veteran journalist Joshua Green … examines the role of Bannon, the man who, on convincing evidence laid out here, was instrumental in securing the most improbable election victory in modern political history.’
‘In all likelihood, Bannon’s ideas — wrapped up in what Green describes as a “swashbuckling grandiosity” and “cult leader magnetism” — could ultimately make him a more consequential figure than Trump himself.’
‘Thrilling.’
‘An invaluable history of how the right started to realign the Republican Party around nationalism. For as long that battle continues — and that will probably be a long time — reading Joshua Green’s book will be instructive.’
‘More gripping than fiction.’
‘Highly entertaining until the moment when Trump takes charge. Then, it becomes disturbing.’
‘Fast-paced, crisp, and cogent, this is a first look into a dark corner of history whose ramifications are only beginning to be understood.’
‘Joshua Green is an incredible storyteller, and Bannon is an incredible subject.’
‘Splendid.’
‘Fascinating … required reading for anyone interested in the future.’
‘Absorbing … the first thing I’ve read in the last year and a half that manages to make some sense of the human catastrophic weather event that is Steve Bannon.’
‘Behind the scenes and ripped from the headlines, Green’s saga exuberantly traces Trump’s wild ride to the presidency.’
‘Intelligent, insightful, and fast-moving.’
