“Bret Easton Ellis is a very, very good writer [and] American
Psycho is a beautifully controlled, careful, important novel…. The
novelist’s function is to keep a running tag on the progress of
culture; and he’s done it brilliantly…. A seminal book.” —Fay
Weldon, The Washington Post
“A masterful satire and a ferocious, hilarious, ambitious,
inspiring piece of writing, which has large elements of Jane Austen
at her vitriolic best. An important book.” —Katherine
Dunn, bestselling author of Geek Love
“A great novel. What Emerson said about genius, that it’s the
return of one’s rejected thoughts with an alienated majesty, holds
true for American Psycho…. There is a fever to the life of this
book that is, in my reading, unknown in American literature.”
—Michael Tolkin
“The first novel to come along in years that takes on deep and
Dostoyevskian themes…. [Ellis] is showing older authors where the
hands come to on the clock.” —Norman Mailer, Vanity Fair
