Synopsis
Bret Easton Ellis's first novel was a publishing sensation when it was published in 1985. The story of disaffected young people in the cold and amoral pop-culture world of Los Angeles, it is told from the point of view of Clay, who begins to question the emptiness of his life. LESS THAN ZERO was published when Ellis was 21 and still in college; inevitably, it was compared to Jay Mc Inerney's New York equivalent, BRIGHT LIGHTS, BIG CITY.

Publisher's Note
Clay comes home on break from his East Coast college to a landscape of limitless privilege and absolute moral entropy, where the natives drive Porsches, dine at Spago, and gobble their Quaaludes from Pez dispensers. Where else can Clay go but down? "A teenage slice-of-death novel, no holds barred".--VILLAGE VOICE.
Set in Los Angeles in the early 1980s, this coolly mesmerizing novel is a raw, powerful portraitof a lost generation who have experienced sex, drugs, and disaffection at too early an age, in aworld shaped by casual nihilism, passivity, and too much money a place devoid of feeling orhope.Clay comes home for Christmas vacation from his Eastern college and re-enters a landscape oflimitless privilege and absolute moral entropy, where everyone drives Porches, dines at Spago,and snorts mountains of cocaine. He tries to renew feelings for his girlfriend, Blair, and for hisbest friend from high school, Julian, who is careering into hustling and heroin. Clay's holidayturns into a dizzying spiral of desperation that takes him through the relentless parties in glitzymansions, seedy bars, and underground rock clubs and also into the seamy world of L.A. after dark.

Industry reviews
