In American Psycho, Bret Easton Ellis imaginatively explores the incomprehensible depths of madness and captures the insanity of violence in our time or any other. 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.

Impressions

    I was rather disturbed by the shallowness and indifference surrounding Patricks world, since he would sometimes bring his ideas of murder into conversations with his friends or girlfriends just to get completely ignored by them. It's a very slow story about the mind of a mad man but it gets interesting towards the end.
