Vance Bourjaily [pronouced Bour-ZHAY-lee] (1922 – 2010) was a prolific American novelist, playwright, journalist, creative writing teacher, and essayist. His career--rather like Norman Mailer and James Jones--grew out of World War II and led to ambitious novels that explored American themes.

BRILL AMONG THE RUINS is a Vietnam-era parable that deals with events affecting a middle-age Midwestern lawyer. Bourjailly felt that America's golden years ended with the assassination of John F. Kennedy.
