Patrick Bateman from 'American Psycho' is someone I both despise and strangely relate to. His meticulous routines and obsession with appearances mirror societal pressures we all face, though his actions are monstrous.
The way Bret Easton Ellis crafts Bateman's inner monologue makes his descent into violence feel uncomfortably familiar. The audiobook's narration amplifies this, with the detached tone making his crimes even more chilling. It's a disturbing reflection of how easily privilege can warp perspective.
