He did not once say Bateman is gay. He has explicitly stated that he didn't out himself as gay earlier because people would then interpret AP in a homosexual context. Which turns out he was right
This is all correct and I don’t get the admiration of Bateman considering this level of taste.
For me it's the Shrek tweet
This was written by his drug addicted millennial boyfriend who he cannot keep under control
So you're saying he's gay and a cuck.
He's like a straighter (but still gay) Chuck Palahniuk.
Big gay, very enjoyable writer.
Overrated
I don’t even know whether to call him underrated or overrated. He’s profoundly middling, which is an uncomfortably vague part of my mind to occupy.
He tweets a lot and seems like a homosexual
Gay
I think he might be gay?
I enjoyed American Psycho (solid four star), how is Less Than Zero? It's on my list but a lot of people seem to dislike it
Less Than Zero is fine but I really like it's sequel Imperial Bedrooms
I didn't really care for it. It has some good moments but it's pretty much a less funny and less interesting American Psycho
American Psycho was 3 stars for me personally. He went overboard with the whole ironic rambling about consumerism and music taste bit, but I found his prose style to be lucid and violent. Less Than Zero was meh but for a first novel by a 21 year old undergrad it mogs the hell out of anything I’ve written
The difference between the movie and book for American Psycho is that the book goes overboard. There's also discordant segments of the book (the stuff about Patrick's family, the fashion descriptions, etc.) that just doesn't flow well with the rest of the story.
Actually, it's the movie that 'goes overboard,' crassly presenting as fact what's probably fiction. I personally think he's underrated: Glamorama's his best novel.
I think the whole purpose of the ramblings was to show just how superficially "smart" Bateman's character was. Everything he knew he simply took from magazines and he considered himself superior to others for it

old white male homosexual who has finally realized that the Left was just using the gay community to subvert traditional American power structures
Smut, and not even well written smut.
gay
He’s got a novel coming out in 2023 called The Shards. His first in 12 years
American Psycho is such a fricking good book

Lunar Park is really good.
I enjoyed it too, though it's commonly shat upon here. I read it after having read everything else, however (except the essay collection White, which I've only recently picked up, and have yet to read) which is probably important, as it not only alludes to his past work, but goofs around with it as well. I suppose this could be viewed as 'self-indulgent' (which BEE would by no means deny) but I rather viewed it as a kind of gift to his readers. Beneath all the irony is just a talented guy who enjoys writing, and appreciates his readership.
Glamorama's not only prescient but one of the truly great novels of the 90's; one day it will be recognized as such.
really liked him in college (almost a decade ago at this point) but my taste has changed. also, i dont follow him closely but it seems like he's turned into typical a boomer obsessed with millennials, cancel culture, etc. which is disappointing. of course, that has nothing to do with his writing. in retrospect, american psycho is probably his only book worth checking out unless his style really speaks to you. his other books are mostly similar with worse execution.
yeah i remember digging all the metafictional stuff in lunar park having read most of his other books by the time i read it.
