_______________ 'A shrewd, acidic portrait of literary life in
Manhattan at the turn of this already frightful century' - Guardian
'A beautiful, affecting novel, one of the best yet inspired by
9/11' - Sunday Telegraph 'Engrossing from start to finish, this
compassionate novel depicts a very human response to tragedy' -
Mail on Sunday _______________ Jay McInerney's classic novel of New
York in the shadow of 9/11 tells a story of love, family and
conflicting desires Ten years on from Brightness Falls, Russell
Calloway is still a literary editor; his wife Corrine has
sacrificed her career to watch anxiously over their children.
Across town Luke McGavock, a wealthy ex-investment banker, is
taking a sabbatical from moneymaking, struggling to reconnect with
his socially resplendent wife Sasha and their angst-ridden teenage
daughter, Ashley. These two Manhattan families are teetering on the
brink of change when 9/11 happens. Through the lens of catastrophe,
The Good Life explores that territory between hope and despair,
love and loss, regret and fulfilment. This is Jay McInerney doing
what he does best, presenting us with life in New York City, in all
its moral complexity. _______________
