内容简介 Book Description
Patrick Bateman is handsome, well-educated, intelligent. He works by day on Wall Street, earning a fortune to complement the one he was born with. His nights he spends in ways we cannot begin wo fathom. He is twenty-six years old and living his own American Dream

"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 progess of the 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

"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 have come to on the clock."
                             ------Norman Mailer, Vanity Fair
