THE CONTROVERSIAL SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER. Candid, fearless
and provocative - the author of American Psycho on who he is and
what he thinks is wrong with the world today. Bret Easton Ellis is
most famous for his era-defining novel American Psycho and its
terrifying anti-hero, Patrick Bateman. With that book, and many
times since, Ellis proved himself to be one of the world's most
fearless and clear-sighted observers of society - the glittering
surface and the darkness beneath. In White, his first work of
non-fiction, Ellis offers a wide-ranging exploration of what the
hell is going on right now. He tells personal stories from his own
life. He writes with razor-sharp precision about the music, movies,
books and TV he loves and hates. He examines the ways our culture,
politics and relationships have changed over the last four decades.
He talks about social media, Hollywood celebrities and Donald
Trump. Ellis considers conflicting positions without flinching and
adheres to no status quo. His forthright views are powered by a
fervent belief in artistic freedom and freedom of speech. Candid,
funny, entertaining and blisteringly honest, he offers opinions
that are impossible to ignore and certain to provoke. What he
values above all is the truth. 'The culture at large seemed to
encourage discourse,' he writes, 'but what it really wanted to do
was shut down the individual.' Bret Easton Ellis will not be shut
down.
