    Disturbing

    I would never be able to rate this book. The characters are all extremely disturbing and become more and more annoying as the book progresses. I kept wanting to put the book down because I so disliked the characters. However, the writing style of Bret Easton Ellis captures you to the point that you keep reading the book, even though you think you hate it.

    What is so great about American Psycho anyway ?
    Why do i keep reading it over and over ?

    I got no answer but my own fascination with Patrick Bateman : Patrick is so much myself and so much a real person that i really blame Ellis for being so fucking talented .

    The Dante's quotation opening the book is explanatory of the hellish empty lives of the NYC yuppies in the 80ies, where only exterior matters (attires, brands, even the business card shape!): where you are cool if can get reservation in a hip restaurant and your friends do not recognize you and confuse you with other people. In such an emptiness Bateman starts raping and killing any "body" he finds without a real rationale. Incapable of warm and human relationships and eager to be loved (as he confesses to his secretary Jean, the only human being of the story), his mind slips in a private hell where reality and dream (actually nightmare) cannot be distinguished.
    A novel sarcastically blaming the Yuppism, but perfectly fitting to the current times
