Capturing the bull-shit of Generation X is Ellis' strong-suit, and he does it very well on this criminally overlooked book. You'll laugh at the sexually and mentally detached characters, and thank God Ellis' world doesn't mirror your own (or truly be scared, that your life is a living lie). Notably, contains a cameo of protagonist Sean Bateman's brother Patrick - who Ellis would later use as his "American Psycho".
