Description
By: Jay McInerney | Series: Vintage Contemporaries
From the author of Bright Lights, Big City comes an unforgettable New York story of glamour, sex, ambition, and heartbreak.
“An art form of sustained intimacy. . . . A portrait of a marriage in full.” —The New York Times Book Review
“Our modern-day Fitzgerald.” —Vanity Fair
Russell and Corrine Calloway seem to be living the dream: a calendar filled with high-society parties; jobs they care about and enjoy; twin children, a boy and a girl whose birth was truly miraculous; a loft in TriBeCa and summers in the Hamptons. But beneath the glossy surfaces, things are simmering. Russell, editor-in-chief of a boutique publisher, has cultural clout but is on the edge financially, and feels compelled to pursue an audacious—and potentially ruinous—opportunity. Meanwhile, Corrine’s world is turned upside down when the man with whom she’d had an ill-fated affair in the wake of 9/11 suddenly reappears, and the Calloways find themselves tested more severely than they ever could have imagined.
The third book in McInerney’s celebrated Calloway trilogy, Bright, Precious Days is an aching, extraordinary portrait of a marriage during a period of dizzying change.
