The stories explore themes of alienation, consumerism, celebrity culture, drugs, sex, and existential emptiness through Ellis’s signature detached, minimalist prose. Many stories feature recurring motifs and characters that link to his other works (\u003cem\u003eLess Than Zero\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eAmerican Psycho\u003c\/em\u003e). The UK Picador first edition hardcover with dust jacket is sought after by collectors of contemporary American literature.
