Publisher's summary
From his first novel – Less Than Zero – published when he was still a college student – to his most recent – the fierce American Psycho, Bret Easton Ellis has been a powerful and original presence in contemporary literature, whether giving voice to a previously inchoate generation or provoking a controversy that raged throughout the culture.
Now he takes a quantum leap forward: an awesome reckoning of the American Century at endgame. In Glamorama, a young man in what is recognizably fashion and celebrity-obsessed Manhattan is gradually, imperceptibly drawn into a shadowy looking-glass of that society, there and in London and Paris, and then finds himself trapped on the other side, in a much darker place where fame and terrorism and family and politics are inextricably linked and sometimes indistinguishable. At once implicated and horror-stricken, his ways of escape blocked at every turn, he ultimately discovers – back on the other, familiar side – that there was no mirror, no escape, no world but this one in which hotels implode and planes fall from the sky.
Time and again, the novel confounds one's expectations of it, and Bret Easton Ellis accomplishes the transitions from comic to surreal to horrific to humane with astonishing confidence. Matching ambition with artistic maturity, Glamorama is at once hilarious, savage in its worldly observation, and compassionate in its vision: a defining novel of our times.
As an added bonus, when you purchase our Audible Modern Vanguard production of Bret Easton Ellis' book, you'll also get an exclusive Jim Atlas interview that begins when the audiobook ends.

White is Bret Easton Ellis's first work of nonfiction. Already the bad boy of American literature, from Less Than Zero to American Psycho, Ellis has also earned the wrath of right-thinking people everywhere with his provocations on social media, and here he escalates. Eschewing convention, he embraces views that will make many in literary and media communities cringe, as he takes aim at anti-Trump fixation, coastal elites, corporate censorship, Hollywood, identity politics, Generation Wuss, "woke" cultural watchdogs, and more.

On an entirely normal, beautiful fall day in Chester's Mill, Maine, the town is inexplicably and suddenly sealed off from the rest of the world by an invisible force field. Planes crash into it and fall from the sky in flaming wreckage, a gardener's hand is severed as "the dome" comes down on it, people running errands in the neighboring town are divided from their families, and cars explode on impact. No one can fathom what this barrier is, where it came from, and when - or if - it will go away.

Story
Enemies turn to lovers in this bad boy billionaire romance with a twist. I had a plan. Finish law school. Start a job. Stay away from men like Brandon Sterling. Cocky, overbearing, and richer than the Earth, he thinks the world belongs to him, and that includes me. Yeah, no. Think again. It doesn't matter that his blue eyes look straight into my soul, or that his touch melts my icy reserve. It doesn't even matter that past all that swagger, there's a beautiful, damaged man who has so much to offer beyond private planes and jewelry boxes. But I had a plan: no falling in love.

„‚American Psycho’ läuft drohend, grollend wie ein Unwetter an, und plötzlich schlägt der grausame Blitz ein: Die Banalität des Schrecklichen, die wir verdrängen wollen, trifft uns und zwingt uns, das Unerträgliche wahrzunehmen: die Oberflächlichkeit, die Brutalität, mit der wir uns abfinden. In einer Medienwelt, die jedes Thema lächelnd in drei Minuten abhandelt - vom Holocaust über die Salatbar zum Krieg – ist dieses Buch ein Schuss ins Herz, Picassos ‚Guernica’ vergleichbar.“ Elke Heidenreich.

Haunted by Chuck Palahniuk is a novel made up of stories: 23 of them, to be precise. Twenty-three of the most horrifying, hilarious, mind-blowing, stomach-churning tales you'll ever encounter, sometimes all at once. They are told by people who have answered an ad headlined "Writers' Retreat: Abandon Your Life for Three Months", and who are led to believe that here they will leave behind all the distractions of "real life" that are keeping them from creating the masterpiece that is in them.

In what is widely hailed as the best of his many novels, Charles Bukowski details the long, lonely years of his own hardscrabble youth in the raw voice of alter ego Henry Chinaski. From a harrowingly cheerless childhood in Germany through acne-riddled high school years, and his adolescent discoveries of alcohol, women, and the Los Angeles Public Library's collection of D. H. Lawrence, Ham on Rye offers a crude, brutal, and savagely funny portrait of an outcast's coming-of-age during the desperate days of the Great Depression.

the story is overall engaging and definitely takes crazy turns throughout. had me riveted at many times, but also bored at others. you could probably cut 9 hours out and still have a cohesive story. either way, it's definitely an Ellis novel

Incredible audio performance
I like a number of Ellis's works. American Psycho is just brilliant, but Imperial Bedrooms did nothing for me. This definitely edges towards the American Psycho side of the fence. Not as good, but close.
I have to say though, part of what made it so great was the narration by Davis. Holy Cow. I've listened to about 5 books narrated by him since and he's incredible. Absolutely perfect for this book.
This was harsh and dark and funny and some of the time I was confused, and I'm still not entirely sure what happened, but I loved it nonetheless.

Incredible reading of an insanely good book
I’ll try to keep this brief… but probably won’t…
I’m a long time Bret Easton Ellis fan and while I’m probably in the minority here, Glamorama has always been my favorite of his novels. It’s such an utterly absurd & insane story that I’m not even gonna try to get into all the details of it. But it is worth noting that this is the first book he wrote that has much of a plot to follow (good luck with that btw 😂) but as is the case with the rest of Easton Ellis’ best work, his dialogue and his use of different techniques and willingness to bend or break various literary rules. The way he uses long run-on sentences throughout the whole book is especially effective. And I’m not sure I’ve ever read a writer who describes the actual physical feelings that accompany emotions like anxiety, dread, paranoia, etc. quite as well as Easton Ellis does. His descriptions of those feelings really cut deep and put you right inside the head of the narrator. I will go ahead and warn anyone that’s uninitiated as far as Easton Ellis books go, most of his books contain lots of sex and a few, this being one, contain lots of violence, and his descriptions of sex and violence are, well, ummm, let’s say they’re vivid to say the least lol 😂 so heads up to anyone who finds such content unappealing…
For the reading of the book in this particular case, I have to say that in all honesty this is probably the best job I’ve heard yet. I had no idea who Jonathan Davis was before I had listened to this, but he is definitely a name I will remember and look for going forward as far as narrators go. He does an excellent job in all respects, his narration is perfect for the tone and style of the material, and he is even better reading the dialogue. He has a voice for every character and there all distinct and don’t sound labored or inauthentic. Really, just an absolutely fantastic job by Mr Davis.
So, in short, this is an awesome novel that is brilliantly brought to life in this excellent audiobook.

if it wasn't for Victor....
I gave this book an overall of 3, because the only real reason I continued to isten to the this 20 Hour audiobook was Victor's inner monologue. This particular element of the book is raw and organic. I gave the story a 2, because the addition of the terrorist groups, the fighting, the action, knives, and guns created an oil and water type affect. I'm sure there's something there and I am still a huge Ellis fan. I just didn't understand this one as well as I wanted to.

Riotous, as funny and brutal as American Psycho
I pondered over much time if I should get this book. "American Psycho" is one of my favorite books because of the humor and the unflinching brutality in it. Glamorama was just that for me, Victor Ward is a male model whom lives his life with paparazzi following him and celebrity obsessed himself, until later in the book which I won't mention. The narrator does an excellent job keeping it fresh and cool. If you enjoyed "American Psycho" then you're bound to enjoy "Glamorama"

The Fever Dream of Fame
Where does Glamorama rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?
Performance wise, 'Glamorama' is among the best, with outstanding narration by Jonathan Davis that perfectly matches the chaotic beat driven by Ellis' masterful writing. It is difficult to stay with the story at times, much because of the nonlinear narrative of the work, but Davis maintains a spectacular vocal approach to the beast and never ceases to let any characters dry out.
What other book might you compare Glamorama to and why?
Definitely compares to other Ellis novels, most particularly 'Lunar Park,' but as a narrative work 'Glamorama' seems quite incomparable to anything else that I've read so far.
Which character – as performed by Jonathan Davis – was your favorite?
Victor (Ward) Johnson, without a doubt, but also Jamie Fields and the mysterious Palakon.
If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Fame Is a Fever You Can't Sweat Out
Any additional comments?
Though not my favorite of Ellis' work, 'Glamorama' was an experiential listen that I would highly recommend to patrons who enjoy Ellis' violent beauty in nonfiction.

Great story if you cut out about 40 hours
I was completely absorbed in this book multiple times.....during my 2 weeks of reading. Ughhhhhh. Why would you make something so good drag out so poorly? I recommend the story to any hardcore fans of the writer, or anyone who wants a really long book, but it was too much for me. I enjoy difficult reads, not tedious ones. I give it a "meh," which is a shame, because it could've rocked

I was not expecting this to be so similar yet so different.
American Psycho was good. But this book was a masterpiece.
I felt transported back to the 1990s. The absurdities of 90s consumerism contrasted with American Psycho focus on the 80s is perfect.
