Bret Easton Ellis : underwriting the contemporary

One of the few available books of criticism on the topic, "Bret Easton Ellis: Underwriting the Contemporary" provides an extended analysis of Ellis's works to argue that his fiction, through the technique of underwriting, offers a new politics of literature. Dealing with his entire body of work to date, from "Less Than Zero" to "Imperial Bedrooms, " the study provides original readings of the writer's equivocal engagement with American culture. Reading Ellis's novels in relation to contemporary political, philosophical and aesthetic concerns, Colby recasts him as a social critic and a subversive literary figure who enables us to think differently about the cultural climates of the 1980s, 1990s, and the first decade of the twenty-first century.
