About this ebook
From the author of Bright Lights, Big City comes an incisive and compelling novel that returns to the restless isle of Manhattan, where neither wishes nor even dreams ever sleep.
"Smart, funny, sexy, and well observed." --Esquire
In his latest novel, Model Behavior, McInerney offers us the portrait of a doubting devotee of the city where vocation, career, and ambition (which only occassionally coincide) run head-on with friendship and love--or merely desire. We see Conor McKnight's well-earned ennui fast becoming anxiety as he tries to protect himself from the harrowing fate that unfolds before his bleary eyes.
This edition contains only the novel Model Behavior, and not the additional seven stories which were published in the original hardcover.

This was my first McInerney book, but won't be my last. The plot is somewhat lightweight and it's a little slow to get started, but the prose is poetic and the insights razor sharp.
