Story of My Life by Jay Mcinerney

Story of My Life by Jay Mcinerney

Smart, sassy and cynical, Alison lives for the moment. Young and beautiful, hip and indulgent, sex-crazed and alcohol-fuelled, she can neither pay her fees for drama school nor track down her indifferent father. She juggles rent money with abortion fees, lingering lovers and is the despair of her gynaecologist. She's heading for a meltdown.

‘Line for line, it's one of the funniest novels I have ever read' John Sutherland, * London Review of Books *
‘McInerney has proven himself not only a brilliant stylist but a master of characterisation, with a keen eye for the incongruities of urban life' * New York Times Book Review *
‘Story of My Life is quite as brilliant as Bright Lights, Big City' * Sunday Times *
‘McInerney's novels, filled with the depiction of glamorous imbecilities and hilarious excesses, are acute about a certain kind of Manhattan amoralityThey offer a swift, intelligent guide to the latest racket' * Observer *

Jay McInerney is the author of BRIGHT LIGHTS, BIG CITY, RANSOM, STORY OF MY LIFE, THE LAST OF THE SAVAGES, MODEL BEHAVIOUR and HOW IT ENDED. He lives in New York and Nashville.
