Publisher's Summary

Jay McInerney's characters include a young woman holed up in a remote cabin while her married boyfriend campaigns for the highest of all offices; a family celebrating the holidays while mired in loss year after year; a couple whose experiments in sexuality cross every line imaginable; an actor visiting his wife in rehab; a doctor treating a variety of convicts and his own criminal past; and a young socialite who is called home to nurse her mother. We also meet Russell and Corinne Calloway again, who featured in Jay's novels Brightness Falls and The Good Life.

What the critics say

"[N]obody can channel urban strivers and their shallow pursuits as well as McInerney." (Publishers Weekly)
“Extremely entertaining. . . elegant, subtle, shapely and reflective. . . . Perfect specimens.” (The New York Times)
“Brim[s] with all the attendant guilt and thrills and self-defeating impulses of an extramarital tryst…. Brilliant.” (The Boston Globe)
