 This is as strange and fascinating a tale of the stock market as has ever been written, the story of Felix Marbury, a London stockbroker's clerk who suddenly finds in himself the power of foretelling the market and so becomes an unexplained wizard, a Colossus of the Street. But being too small a man to handle so terrible a gift, he prostitutes his miraculous foresight to satisfy personal lusts and grudges.

The rise of thin-shouldered little Felix from Brixton to the heart and height of social London is a fairy-story of a new kind, and the whole procedure of his meteoric attempt to exploit
newly found wealth in the Honduras discloses strange possibilities in the inside workings of the modern stock market.
