Böcker av Jay McInerney

From celebrated novelist Jay McInerney, whose extensive writing on wine has been called 'crisp, stylish and very funny' (New York Times Book Review), comes an delectable collection of great writing about wine

Corrine Calloway is a young stockbroker on Wall Street, her husband Russell an underpaid but ambitious publishing editor. The happily married couple head into New York's 1980s gold rush, awash with prospects and promise, where the best and brightest vie with the worst and most craven for riches, fame and the love of beautiful people. But the Calloways soon discover that what goes up must come crashing down, both on Wall Street and at home. Brightness Falls captures lives-in-the-making: men and women confronting adulthood with wit and low behaviour, fear and confusion, and, just occasionally, a little honesty and decency.

An astonishingly funny and poignant new collection of short stories from Jay McInerney - one of the pre-eminent writers of his generation.

A searing novel of interracial love and social change, spanning three decades of American history, from the acclaimed author of Bright Lights, Big City
