Book excerpt: Introducing an unforgettable heroine for our times, Nina de la Mer's bold and unflinching novel captures the mood of an urban generation, seduced by celebrity and fueled by drink, drugs, and pornography. Arriving in London, Hayleigh finds work as lap dancer "Layla," intent on earning enough cash to make a fresh start. She has the wit, the looks, and skillful moves, exploiting men before they can exploit her. But over the course of a chaotic week she must make the biggest decision of her life and fight for the one thing she truly wants. This is a brilliant and moving novel, imaginatively powerful and authentically conceived. 30 years after the resounding success of Jay McInerney's Bright Lights, Big City, and written in a similarly intense second-person narrative, Layla speaks for a new generation.
