      Bret Easton Ellis is my favorite living author of fiction. He is absolutely brilliant. Charlie needs to get him back on.

      And John, you're completely right. How so many people misunderstood the novel escapes me.

      His novels are NOT misogynistic. It's satire!

      How can anyone who bothered to read American Psycho not realize this?

      -John.
