Beskrivning
With an introduction by Otessa Moshfegh, author of Lapvona.In 1985, Bret Easton Ellis shocked, stunned and disturbed with his debut novel, Less Than Zero. Published when he was just twenty-one, this extraordinary and instantly infamous work has become a rare thing: a cult classic and a timeless embodiment of the zeitgeist. Filled with relentless drinking in seamy bars and glamorous nightclubs, wild, drug-fuelled parties, and dispassionate sexual encounters, Less Than Zero is narrated by Clay, an eighteen-year-old student returning home to Los Angeles for Christmas. Bret Easton Ellis's debut novel is a fierce coming-of-age story, justifiably celebrated for its unflinching depiction of hedonistic youth, its brutal portrayal of the inexorable consequences of such moral depravity, and its author’s refusal to condone or chastise such behaviour.Less Than Zero has done more than simply define a genre: it continues to be a landmark in the lives of successive generations of readers across the globe.Part of the Picador Collection, a series showcasing the best of modern literature.

  1. 4/5 Sofia V

    Platt vid första anblick, men oj vad jag hade fel! Mycket skickligt skildrar Eason Ellis baksidan av den amerikanska Hollywood-drömmen om sex, droger och kändisar, när nyhetens behag inte längre infinner sig och inte ens de sjukaste situationerna en rik tonåring skulle kunna utsätta sig själv för väcker någon som helst känsla hos huvudkaraktären... Ingen feel-goodbok, men starkt tips till den som är ute efter en samhällskritisk läsupplevelse utan att få budskapet serverat på ett silverfat.
