PRESS
"Inspired. A wonderfully comic novel." -Gore
Vidal
"After they exploit you, infuriate you, crack you up, and
depress you, the characters actually make you miss them when the
book ends...Ellis is sympathetic to his 'lost generation' the way
only Fitzgerald was about his." -Elle
"With a canny journalist's eye for detail and dialogue, Ellis's
storytelling carries the complete lack of sentiment and empathy
of a seasoned comic novelist." -
Los Angeles Times
"I can't think of Ellis without recalling Orwell and Jack
Kerouac...Ellis's descriptive powers in defining time and place
are precise and horrifying."
-Seattle
Weekly
"Ellis is an extraordinary writer."
-L.A. Weekly
"Ellis has a keen ear for dialogue, a sharp eye for the moral
bankruptcy of modern life, and a vivid imagination."
-San
Francisco Chronicle
"Ellis is, first and last, a moralist. Under cover of his
laconic voice, every word in his [novels] springs from grieving
outrage at our spiritual condition."
-Los
Angeles Times Book Review
"Sreves to establish Mr. Ellis's reputation further as one
of the primary inside sources in upper-middle-class America's continuing
investigation of what has happened to its children."
-The
New York Times Book Review
