Three generations of American writers consider Harold Robbins their teacher. In the 50s, 60s and 70s, this writer was the main trendsetter in American literature. Each of his new novels caused a huge resonance in society. The novel “A Stone for Danny Fisher” occupies a prominent place in his work. It reflected the characteristic features of Robbins' style: an exciting plot, vivid images of characters, dynamic development of events, deep knowledge of the business world, detective intrigue.
