About the Book

The imposing glass tower once stood as an awe-inspiring monument to boundless innovation and exponential profits, the very personification of period zeitgeist glorifying market dynamism unlocking stratospheric wealth for pioneers who dared. Back then, any business luminary worth his pinstripes aspired a seat at the table inside its formidable steel-and-concrete halls bustling 24/7 with Ivy pedigree talent energized chasing uncharted billions birthing modern empires out of boring old pipelines and utilities left behind analog dust.

To insiders and acolytes, being part of Enron those heady days represented the ultimate high flirting daily with biztech singularity blurring lines between energy and software, matter and metaphor. Here stood Jedi masters inventing capitalism 2.0 on the fly, good and great be damned. Their swashbuckling charge hurtling into undiscovered realms free from musty rules bred to contain lesser visionaries lacking courage grasping true liberation realized only unshackling the restless adolescent spirit of unstoppable ingenuity.

Back then, no convention bound these corporate Bolsheviks storming barricades protecting decades old incumbents from such creative destruction. Their appetites demanded expanding empire nonstop via conquest and cunning nurturing dynastic family fortunes rivaling pharaohs and fuelling legend one earnings season to the next. For what force in universe could constrain ambition unchained - certainly no milquetoast regulators, media critics, or old economy rivals clueless still waging yesterday's losing battles amidst dotcom era great awakening?

So observers asked with understandable envy back in those salad days - who WOULDN'T sacrifice everything grasping at the next rung climbing Enron ladder towards membership in such vaunted pantheon? Mere proximity to patented pixie dust dousing insiders every morning sustaining 15,000% decade returns seemingly assured loyalty lifelong...everyone wanted priceless tickets these trains flying to fortune...

And therein sprouted first spoors of inconvenient truth threatening their carefully cultivated image. Growth untampered by discipline and ethics nursed hubris blinding precarious cracks masked by bravado and accounting magic tricks converting losses into profits...for awhile...

Some suggest unattended shadows germinate catastrophe given time...outpacing best PR whitewashing in attempts sustaining illusion everything burns bright permanently where ambition chases self-righteous outcomes.
Eventually questions stirred - were Enron gods truly providential or more heavens' castoffs spared responsibility themselves judging failures less existentially? Did king Midas himself not divine gravity laws ensuring all flights Icarus eventually return to reality however artfully gold-plated the wax defying for years such reckoning awaiting? For nobody escapes time's judgment on what shapes stand sturdy built upon solid ground vs vanished chasing mirages from decayed foundations weakened sustaining facades until crisis punctures fantasy...

So as astonishing two decades long morality tale still captivates imagination what finally felled mighty house Enron built upon sand disguising fakery as disruptive brilliance? Hidden in its rise and fall endures profound insights maturing capitalism away from infantile entitlement ethics detached from accountability. For responsible innovation build sustainable engines uplifting lives broadly while serving shared hopes over selfish wants alone...
