Originally shared by Atlantic Monthly Press in 1988 and now reissued by Grove Press, The History of My Life by Jay McInerney is a amusing, sobering family portrait of 1980s New York City featuring 20-something actress Alison Poole and her coterie of club-hopping, coke-addicted friends. Within this breathlessly paced novel, McInerney revisits the nocturnal New York of Bright Lighting, Big City. Alison Poole is a budding actress already fatally amply trained in hopping the clubs, shopping Chanel, falling in and out of lust, and abusing other people's bank cards. As Alison races toward psychological breakdown, McInerney offers us a funny yet oddly coming in contact with portrait of the postmodern Holly Golightly arriving to conditions with a world where everything is permitted and nothing really matters.
