About this product

Product Information

The basis of the major motion picture starring Billy Bob Thornton, KimBasinger and Mickey Rourke, The Informers is aseductive and chillingly nihilistic vel, in which Bret Easton Ellis, returns to Los Angeles, the city whose moral badlands he portrayed so unforgettably in Less Than Zero. This time is the early eighties. The characters go to the same schools and eat at the same restaurants. Their voices enfold us as seamlessly as those of DJs heard over a car radio. They have sex with the same boys and girls and buy from the same dealers. In short, they are connected in the only way people can be in that city.Dirk sees his best friend killed in a desert car wreck, then rifles through his pockets for a last joint before the ambulance comes. Cheryl, a wannabe newscaster, chides her future stepdaughter, You're tan but you don't look happy. Jamie is a clubland carnivore with a taste for human blood. As rendered by Ellis, their interactions compose a chilling, fascinating, and outrageous descent into the abyss beneath L.A.'s gorgeous surfaces.

worth the $3.50 i paid.
it’s all different stories. not a narrative throughline. that caught me off guard at first. most chapters are engrossing. a few are duds, or atleast dudly.

Not his best work, but very good.
I bought this book in its hardcover because my soft cover fell apart from the binding. Its a great read, if you like Bret or like stories of nihilism, you should check this out.

Okay book
This book was ok, but I didn't like it as much as Lunar Park, American Psycho, or even Glamorama. Maybe I just didn't get it, I don't know.
