Reviews

The first work of non-fiction from the American Psycho author is very good . . . the best thing he has published for years * Sunday Times *
A winning mixture of incautious autobiography and caustic polemic, with plenty of sharp social observation thrown in . . . What a timely book this is - bursting with wit and diablerie, shameless, bracing and fun. * Mail on Sunday *
A splenetic analysis of the culture of today . . . occasionally brilliant, often thought-provoking * The Times *
Not everybody is going to like it. He doesn't care. * New York Times *
For the youthful twitterati, I suppose, he's just another old white man who hates everything -- Hugo Rifkind * The Times *
This attack on political correctness in the Twitter age . . . has all the sound, fury and insignificance of a misguided rant posted at 3am * Guardian *
Ellis will lose friends over this book. * Wall Street Journal *
Best described as a provocation . . . it's up to you, the reader, to choose to what degree you are prepared to allow yourself to be riled. * Observer *
@BretEastonEllis Your book White is staggeringly good. I'm loving it. Thank you so much for your style, your humour and your honesty. -- Eric Idle (on Twitter)
