The New York Times bestselling author of American Psycho and Less Than Zero delivers a gripping and brilliant dissection of our celebrity obsessed culture. • "Arguably the novel of the 1990's…Should establish Ellis as the most ambitious and fearless writer of his generation…a must read." -The Seattle Times
Set in 90s Manhattan, Victor Ward, a model with perfect abs and all the right friends, is seen and photographed everywhere, even in places he hasn't been and with people he doesn't know. He's living with one beautiful model and having an affair with another on the eve of opening the trendiest nightclub in New York City history. And now it's time to move to the next stage. But the future he gets is not the one he had in mind.
With the same deft satire and savage wit he has brought to his other fiction, Bret Ellis gets beyond the facade and introduces us, unsparingly, to what we always feared was behind it. Glamorama shows us a shadowy looking-glass reality, the juncture where fame and fashion and terror and mayhem meet and then begin to resemble the familiar surface of our lives.

Bewertet: Buch (Taschenbuch)
Eine teils amüsante Satire der 90er Jahre, nur leider recht langatmig und mit einer Story die gegen das Ende hin immer konfuser, unklarer und seltsamer wird - und am Ende werden die wichtigsten Fragen die der Leser hat doch nicht beantwortet.
