Reading Brett Easton Ellis anywhere
Currently reading the excellent new Brett Ellis book, 'Lunar park'. Now, Patrick Bateman's blog - that WOULD be interesting - 'I'm out of my mind on cocaine, snapple and prescription tranquilisers and I've just come from the Virgin megastore where I've bought Huey Lewis's greatest hits on all five formats and I notice that there's a bloodstain on my Gucci loafers and I can't recall if it's from the nosebleed I had last night after doing too much coke or the gore that spilled from the minor celeb I chainsawed in half at a magic club the other night and got away with it partially because everyone thought it was an act but mostly because everyone really wanted it to happen and I know that I won't be able to get reservations at 'Le Wanquer' tonight but most important of all what is really getting my goat is that they have pulled 'Stargate' from the schedules and this makes me mad, but not as mad as some of the other blogs I have been reading and some of the podcasts I have been listening to because it would appear that even though the book about me published a decade ago caused a storm of process and even though it was totally self regarding and was only ablout me, me, me and that this was seen, at the time, as quite a bad thing because this is how psychotic people actually thinkā¦it would appear that there are millions of Patrick Bateman's out there all writing their own novel, paragraph by paragraph in their blogs but instead of stomping people to death in designer tassel loafers, they describe their hobbies, their pets or the painfully empty lives of their f**king kids in such excruciating detail that like the murders in 'American Psycho', you wonder if the level of banality they exist in can actually exist outside their own heads'.
