Praise for Jay McInerney and How It Ended

“How It Ended reminds us how impressively broad McInerney’s scope has been and how confidently he has ranged across wide swaths of our national experience. . . .He possesses the literary naturalist’s full tool kit: empathy and curiosity, a peeled eye and a well-tuned ear, a talent for building narratives at once intimate and expansive, plausible and inventive.” —Sam Tanenhaus, The New York Times Book Review, front page

“A master of short fiction. . . . The characters [McInerney] crafts are so strong, the reader continues to care about them after the last page is turned.” —The Miami Herald

“Immediately enveloping. . . . This collection highlights a powerful contemporary American writer.” —The Plain Dealer
