Disenchanted youth navigate 1980s L.A. excess.

"Less Than Zero" by Bret Easton Ellis captures the hollow opulence and cold detachment of a privileged yet lost segment of youth in 1980s Los Angeles. It's not just a novel—it's a cultural snapshot encapsulating the era's indulgent lifestyle and its impact on the soul. Reading it is like looking through a stark, uncompromising lens at a generation struggling to find meaning amidst material excess. If you're drawn to darkly honest depictions of youth and society, this book is likely to captivate and disturb in equal measure.

Description

Set in Los Angeles in the early 1980s, this coolly mesmerizing novel is a raw, powerful portrait of a lost generation who have experienced sex, drugs, and disaffection at too early an age, in a world shaped by casual nihilism, passivity, and too much money—a place devoid of feeling or hope. Clay comes home for Christmas vacation from his Eastern college and re-enters a landscape of limitless privilege and absolute moral entropy, where everyone drives Porsches, dines at Spago, and snorts mountains of cocaine. He tries to renew feelings for his girlfriend, Blair, and for his best friend from high school, Julian, who is careering into hustling and heroin. Clay's holiday turns into a dizzying spiral of desperation that takes him through the relentless parties in glitzy mansions, seedy bars, and underground rock clubs, and also into the seamy world of L.A. after dark.
