Description
American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis
Celebrating 50 years of Picador Books.
I like to dissect girls. Did you know I'm utterly insane?
Patrick Bateman has it all: good looks, youth, charm, a job on Wall Street, and reservations at every new restaurant in town. He is also a psychopath. A man addicted to his superficial, perfect life, he pulls us into a dark underworld where the American Dream becomes a nightmare...
With an introduction by Irvine Welsh, Bret Easton Ellis's American Psycho is one of the most controversial and talked-about novels of all time. A multi-million-copy bestseller hailed as a modern classic, it is a violent and outrageous black comedy about the darkest side of human nature.
Part of the Picador Collection, a new series showcasing the best of modern literature.
Not for sale in Queensland.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
American Psycho is praised for its controlled and significant commentary on culture, judged by high standards for its portrayal of a society addicted to blandness. It effectively explores the mindless preoccupations of its era and is considered clever and shatteringly effective. Despite its shocking content, it is recognised for addressing profound themes akin to Dostoyevsky's works.
