I want to know the answer to the following question:
What race was Sherman McCoy?
All the background I'm provided with is that "By contrast, Tom Wolfe's Bonfire of the Vanities (1987) portrays a wealthy, white protagonist, Sherman McCoy, getting lost off the Major Deegan Expressway in the South Bronx and having an altercation with locals.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
