The cult classic re-issued to celebrate its 25th anniversary, before the publication of the sequel, 'Imperial Bedrooms' In 1985, Bret Easton Ellis shocked, stunned and disturbed with his debut novel, 'Less Than Zero'. This extraordinary and instantly infamous work has done more than simply define a genre, it has become a rare thing: a cult classic and a timeless embodiment of the zeitgeist. Filled with relentless drinking in seamy bars and glamorous nightclubs, wild, drug-fuelled parties, and dispassionate sexual encounters, 'Less Than Zero' is a fierce coming-of-age story, justifiably celebrated for its unflinching depiction of hedonistic youth, its brutal portrayal of the inexorable consequences of such moral depravity, and its author's refusal to condone or chastise such behaviour.
