 From the bestselling author of Bright Lights, Big City and Brightness Falls comes a chronicle of a generation, as enacted by two men who represent all the passions and extremes of the class of 1969. Patrick Keane and Will Savage meet at prep school at the beginning of the explosive '60s. Over the next 30 years, they remain friends even as they pursue radically divergent destinies--and harbor secrets that defy rebellion and conformity.   less

This may be my first McInerney, but it will definately not my last. Simply a great read - what else can I say?

A very good quick read, but the ending was sort of disappointing. It seemed contrived to me. The parts about their youth were pretty good though.

This is the first book I've read of Jay McInerney's and I find him to be a bit like Paul Auster (whom I really like).  This was an easy read and although I didn't learn anything specific from it, the characters were full of personality and I'd have no trouble picturing them if I ran into them on the street.  But then, in reality, we are all characters  aren't we?
