Jay McInerney

(born 1955) Bright Lights, Big City (1984) identified the Tennessee author with New York City, NY’s literary brat pack, including Bret Easton Ellis and Tama Janowitz, and their Generation-X depictions of empty yuppie lives in the big city After becoming, in his own words, an overexposed literary celebrity as a twenty-something, McInerney has sought more serious themes and style, sometimes reflecting F. Scott Fitzgerald, in later novels like Brightness Falls (1992) and The Last of the Savages (1996).
