I Can Get It for You Wholesale: A Novel (The Harry Bogen Novels)

Jerome Weidmanâ€™s enduring classic novel about life in New Yorkâ€™s cutthroat garment district

Just south of Times Square, more than six thousand manufacturers of dresses are crammed into the few blocks that make up Manhattanâ€™s garment district. Their factories are cramped, noisy, and incredibly profitableâ€”and Harry Bogen is going to take them for all theyâ€™re worth. A classic conniver, he knows that itâ€™s easier, and a hell of a lot more fun, to turn a buck by lying than by telling the truth.
Â
First he convinces the shipping clerksâ€”the pack animals of the garment industryâ€”to go on strike. With the dress manufacturers brought to their knees, Harry will be there to pick them up again. His conscience might be conflicted, if he had one in the first place.
Â
A bracing comic sensation when first published, I Can Get It for You Wholesale remains a timeless masterpieceâ€”its hero still a scoundrel, and his charm as irresistible as ever.
