Review title: like rubbernecking
Product review: If you've ever driven by a horrible car accident and couldn't help but look, you'll know what reading this book is like. It's shock-value scenes are deployed for mere fascination, nothing else. The man character, Patrick Bateman, is wholly unidentifiable as anything close to a member of the animal kingdom, pathologic or not. Mr. Ellis refuses to give any substance or insight into his character, but instead exploits our perceptions of evil and godlessness to spin a useless tale of depravity. No insight, resolution or explanations, only bewildering implausabilities which make us wonder "why bother?"
