NATIONAL BESTSELLER • From the New York Times bestselling author of American Psycho and Less Than Zero comes a chilling tale that combines reality, memoir, and fantasy to create a fascinating portrait of this most controversial writer but also a deeply moving novel about love and loss, parents and children, and ultimately forgiveness.
“John Cheever writes The Shining.” —Stephen King, Entertainment Weekly
Bret Ellis, the narrator of Lunar Park, is the bestselling writer whose first novel Less Than Zero catapulted him to international stardom while he was still in college. In the years that followed he found himself adrift in a world of wealth, drugs, and fame, as well as dealing with the unexpected death of his abusive father.
After a decade of decadence a chance for salvation arrives; the chance to reconnect with an actress he was once involved with, and their son. But almost immediately his new life is threatened by a freak sequence of events and a bizarre series of murders that all seem to connect to Ellis’s past. His attempts to save his new world from his own demons makes Lunar Park Ellis’s most suspenseful novel.
Look for Bret Easton Ellis’s new novel, The Shards!

Critic reviews
"[Ellis's] most enjoyable novel . . . The story of a doomed marriage blends with a satirical take on upscale suburban angst, a campy horror story about a haunted house, a Frankenstein-like case of a monster unchained and a serious rumination on the damage fathers can do to sons. Ellis stirs these elements into a steamy witches' brew and works his way through to a marvelously elegiac ending, displaying real artistic discipline . . . Even his harshest critics may now have to acknowledge that this versatile, resourceful writer has formidable skills." --Kirkus, starred review

Would you listen to Lunar Park again? Why?
I don't know that I would listen to this again, but that should not prevent anyone from picking it up. If you like any Bret Easton Ellis book, you will love this.What other book might you compare Lunar Park to and why?
Augusten Burroughs' memoirs. I know this one is more fictionalized, but Ellis gives off the same naked sense of self that Burroughs possesses.Any additional comments?
James Van der Beek is *perfect.My Bret Easton Ellis Bias May Be Showing, But...
