Glamorama (Vintage Contemporaries) - Softcover

"Arguably the novel of the 1990's ... Glamorama should establish Ellis as the most ambitious and fearless writer of his generation.... It is perfectly of out time ... a must read." --The Settle Times

"Impeccable... cold and pitiless and modern.... [Ellis] captures a cultural moment of racial dandyhood, where distinctions of sexuality seem less important that whether you look like a model and wear Prada." --The Village Voice

"Compelling and scary. A political thriller bursting with conspiracies, double agents and international terrorism. Glamorama is like a Semtex attack on our superficialities." --The Face

"Ellis is fast becoming a writer of real American genius." --GQ

"His best work to date.... He remains a laser-precise satirist but the wit now dominates." --Esquire

A young man from the fashionable, celebrityobsessed society of New York finds himself gradually drawn into a shadowy, dark side of that society, until he becomes trapped in terrifying world in which politics and family, terrorism and fame become inextricably intertwined.
