Review title: This is Not An Exit
Product review: Bret Easton Ellis has got to be the most talented author in modern America. Using Patrick Bateman's stream of conscious you experience the ultimate downward spiral of a young successful man. But not only is it the downward spiral of this man, but the downward spiral of America. Patrick Bateman loses his humanity and takes it out by torturing the young women and prostitutes who fall for his glamour and status. The fact that Bateman and several others are confused for other characters by their own supposed social circle further proves the "carbon copy, I just want to fit in" mentality that seemed to overcome America in the 1980's. This book is more of a social commentary than a work of prose.
