Sex, excess and urban paranoia... this collection of short stories returns to hallmark McInerney territory

Discover a world of sex, excess and urban paranoia where worlds collide, relationships fragment and the dark underbelly of the American dream is exposed. A transgender prostitute accidentally propositions his own father. A senator's serial infidelities leave him in hot water. And two young lovers spend Christmas together high on different drugs.

McInerney's characters struggle together in a shifting world where old certainties dissolve and nobody can be sure of where they stand.
