A New Morning for Frey

James Frey delivers his first and long-awaited novel in grand fashion with Bright Shiny Morning. Bold, exhilarating and written in Frey's dazzling prose, the book is a sweeping chronicle of the modern city.

Illuminating life in Los Angeles, where the joys and horrors of a city's culture can destroy a life as easily as make it, Frey lingers on a handful of lost souls that could be found in any major urban centre. As dozens of characters pass in and out of the story, it is the few Frey focuses on who leave an indelible mark on the reader. Like us, they are flawed, they struggle and their lives can change in an instant.

As controversial as he may be there is no doubt that James Frey is one of the best and most original writers working today. Bright Shiny Morning returns Frey to the forefront of popular literature and to the millions of fans who have been waiting for him.
