Ellis has got to be the worst writer of any degree of acclaim that I have ever encountered. Just awful, total CRAP.

Less Than Zero - OVERRATED fine novel from a teenager.
Rules Of Attraction - Crap
American Psycho - Great Novel.
Glamorama - Great Novel.
Lunar Park - fine.

I've read American Psycho and Rules of Attraction. I have also seen the film adaptations of these books. I have heard a few Genesis songs.

I have not enjoyed any of these things.

CRAP

This review of Glamorama always makes me laugh.

It's about as thorough a beatdown as I've ever seen the NYTBR dish out.

Agreed. I've read all of his books and this was the best. It probably won't be a movie because it's pretty much unfilmable. Rules of Attraction was a so-so book and a good movie.

I read his last novel - the name escapes me - and it was beyond horrible. That's it - no more BEE!

Buy yourself a copy of Less Than Zero and you'll know the answer.

CRAP


That book was terrible - American Psycho wasn't as bad, but its not something I bring up in a convo about books.

Crap.
