Bret Easton Ellis - American Psycho

"Bret Easton Ellis's "American Psycho" thrusts readers into a world of excess, materialism, and psychological unraveling. Through the eyes of Patrick Bateman, a wealthy and charming Wall Street executive, Ellis delves into the darker corners of the human psyche, where violence and consumerism intertwine. The narrative juxtaposes Bateman's outward appearance with his inner monologue of sadistic fantasies, immersing us in a chilling exploration of identity and morality. As Ellis navigates the disorienting haze of Bateman's mind, he forces readers to confront uncomfortable questions about the veneer of civilization and the fragility of sanity. "American Psycho" is a provocative and disturbing tour de force that challenges our notions of societal norms and the depths of human depravity."
