Jay McInerney

As a student Jay studied writing with Raymond Carver, emerging with his millionselling first novel Bright Lights, Big City - unique at the time due to its unusual second person narration. The novel established McInerney’s reputation as part of a new generation of writers labelled the Literary Brat Pack with Bret Easton Ellis and Tama Janowitz.

He’ll be reading from his iconic first novel and talking about his latest work.
