Black Buck by Mateo Askaripour

Charming and quick witted, Askaripour's Black Buck is a contemporary Death of A Salesman. When 20 year old Darren joins Rhett Daniels of the new, lucrative startup Sumwun, he has no idea how his life is going to change. Dubbed Black Buck, Darren quickly climbs the corporate ladder only to find that success is not what he thinks it is. Interspersed with reflections of an older Darren, Black Buck sheds a harsh light on modern day corporate America, race relations, and much more. Fast paced and amusing read.
