"Bright Lights, Big City" by Jay McInerney
Jay McInerney's influential debut illustrated the decadence of the '80s in a way that still echoes to this day.

The story's 20-something main character is disillusioned by the way his life has turned out, with a uninspiring job and a failed relationship, but parties hard at night at places like The Odeon to cope with his unfulfilled existence.
