So fascinating is the lifestyle of the rich and the famous. In Oh the Glory of it All, Sean Wilsey journeys into the grandiose lifestyle of his family that is supremely wealthy, and equally strange. His sultry, blonde mother is known for her scandalous past among high-society, spent entertaining the likes of celebrities and even Black Panthers. The father is a dairy tycoon who carted Wilsey around town in his jet helicopter. And of course, there is the evil stepmother who committed countless foibles on Wilsey’s childhood. Wilsey’s memoir of money, greed, sex, and growth is sure to entertain and shock you.

Sean Wilsey’s works have appeared in The London Review of Books and The Los Angeles Times, among others. He is the editor at large of McSweeny’s Quarterly. This book is published by The Penguin Press.
