The Informers

Zusatztext The Informers is spare! austere! elegantly designed! telling in detail! coolly ferocious! sardonic in its humor; every vestige of authorial sentiment is expunged. Informationen zum Autor Bret Easton Ellis Klappentext 'A writer at the peak of his powers . . . The book takes us from the first to the seventh circles of hell, from Salinger to de Sade' Will Self The Informers is a collection of short stories with intertwining characters, from the author of American Psycho and Less Than Zero, Bret Easton Ellis. Their voices enfold us as seamlessly as those of DJs heard over a car radio. The characters go to the same schools. They eat at the same restaurants. They have sex with the same boys and girls. They buy from the same dealers. Fusing voices into an intense, impressionistic narrative that blurs genders, generations and even identities, these stories capture the lives of a group of people, connected in the way only people in L.A. can be - suffering from nothing less than the death of the soul. In this incisive collection of stories, Bret Easton Ellis returns to the moral badlands of 1980s Los Angeles. Zusammenfassung From the author of American Psycho, The Informers is an incisive collection of stories that sees Bret Easton Ellis return to the moral badlands of 1980s Los Angeles.
