American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis

INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER * In this modern classic, the acclaimed author of The Shards explores the incomprehensible depths of madness and captures the insanity of violence in our time or any other.

"A seminal book." --The Washington Post

Patrick Bateman moves among the young and trendy in 1980s Manhattan. Young, handsome, and well educated, Bateman earns his fortune on Wall Street by day while spending his nights in ways we cannot begin to fathom. Expressing his true self through torture and murder, Bateman prefigures an apocalyptic horror that no society could bear to confront.

"A masterful satire and a ferocious, hilarious, ambitious, inspiring piece of writing.... An important book." --Katherine Dunn, bestselling author of Geek Love
