It also had kike-slop in the novel where the main character bullied poor innocent jews by calling them names in the street < vomit >.
I agree with Ellis - he touched on some good themes of losing touch with humanity through materialism and greed, but it was low quality gore slop.
But it's under the surface, that's why I said you need to be able to understand it. He expresses the alienation of the protagonist in a multitude of subtle ways, it's a book with multiple layers. I believe you really missed most of it, you miss what makes it great, a bit like people who read 1984 and think it's about surveillance cameras.
There's very little gore in that book, so you mentioning it makes me think you're getting confused with the movie.
The novel was banned in libraries all across the US and in dozens of countries because of the gore.
Have you even read the American Psycho novel slop?
Yes I read the novel. You clearly haven't read it if you think it's about gore.
In any case, who cares, I'm not going to continue arguing because you don't like a novel that I liked.
