Bret Easton Ellis

rdfs:comment

Bret Easton Ellis (born March 7, 1964 in Los Angeles, California) is a bisexual American author. He was regarded as one of the so-called literary Brat Pack, which also included Tama Janowitz and Jay McInerney. He has called himself a moralist, although he is one of his generation's most controversial authors because of his graphic prose style. Influenced by French social realists like Flaubert and Balzac, Ellis updates those novelists' themes of youthful ennui, materialism, status obsession, and social trangression; he also employs their technique of linking novels with common, recurring characters. His dystopic locales typically make use of large, dense cities such as Los Angeles, New York and Paris. Bret Easton Ellis (born March 7, 1964 in Los Angeles, California) is an American author. He is considered to be one of the major Generation X authors and was regarded as one of the so-called literary Brat Pack, which also included Tama Janowitz and Jay McInerney. He has called himself a moralist, although he has often been pegged as a nihilist. His characters are young, generally vacuous people, who are aware of their depravity but choose to enjoy it. The novels are also linked by common, recurring characters, and dystopic locales (such as Los Angeles and New York).

n14:abstract

Los Angeles-born writer who rose to fame in The Eighties as one of the "Literary Brat Pack"-- and probably the most successful of this group. Works include: * Less Than Zero (1985) * The Rules of Attraction (1987) * American Psycho (1991) * The Informers (1994) (short story anthology) * Glamorama (1998) * Lunar Park (2005) * Imperial Bedrooms (2010) (a sequel to Less Than Zero revisiting the characters in current times) Alongside the controversy of these books, Ellis is a fairly public figure, whose Twitter account and public quotes skirt the edges of misogyny and misanthropy. In short, Ellis is a terrific writer who isn't all right in the head. Bret Easton Ellis (born March 7, 1964 in Los Angeles, California) is a bisexual American author.
