American Psycho (Birthday Edition) by Bret Easton Ellis
Not for the faint-hearted, Bret Easton Ellis's American Psycho is a notorious indictment of the modern world's obsession with money and status. First published in 1991, this black-hearted satire has provoked admiration and controversy ever since. Patrick Bateman is twenty-six and works on Wall Street; he is handsome, charming and intelligent. He is also a psychopath. This bitter black comedy takes a hilarious and spine-chilling look at the preoccupations of modern American society, and in so doing exposes the darkness that lurks behind the mask.
'A serious, clever and shatteringly effective piece of writing.. For its savagely coherent picture of a society lethally addicted to blandness, it should be judged by the highest standards' SUNDAY TIMES
Bret Easton Ellis was born in 1964 and raised in Los Angeles. He is the author of Less Than Zero, The Rules of Attraction, The Informers and Glamorama. He lives in New York City.
