About the Book

Las memorias del creador de American Psycho después de una década regresa el autor más controvertido de los 90 con su libro más polémico.

«Hemos entrado en una peligrosa suerte de totalitarismo que en realidad aborrece la libre expresión y castiga a la gente por mostrarse tal cual es.» Bret Easton Ellis

Bret Easton Ellis creó a Patrick Bateman, el célebre ejecutivo de Wall Street que, en la obra maestra American Psycho, mejor describió los delirios de toda una época. Después de una brillante carrera novelística, el enfant terrible de la literatura norteamericana vuelve a la carga con su aclamado primer libro de no ficción: una autobiografía que recorre su infancia, su polémica carrera y las referencias literarias, cinematográficas y de la cultura popular de los setenta y los ochenta que marcaron su vida. Pero Bret Easton Ellis no se queda en el pasado, y lleva a cabo un análisis perspicaz y totalmente libre de autocensura de la sociedad del presente, preguntándose qué demonios ha ocurrido en estas últimas cuatro décadas.

Blanco es una defensa del derecho a la libertad de expresión y una crítica a la dictadura del neopuritanismo, a la hipersensibilidad millennial y a lo políticamente correcto en la era de las redes sociales. Bret Easton Ellis reivindica el humor y la sátira como herramientas de provocación y, por encima de todo, reclama una libertad que se desvanece. Las agudas reflexiones que pone sobre la mesa vienen a revolucionar la actualidad con una honestidad provocadora y corrosiva.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Own it, snowflakes: you've lost everything you claim to hold dear.

White is Bret Easton Ellis's first work of nonfiction. Already the bad boy of American literature, from Less Than Zero to American Psycho, Ellis has also earned the wrath of right-thinking people everywhere with his provocations on social media, and here he escalates his admonishment of received truths as expressed by today's version of "the left." Eschewing convention, he embraces views that will make many in literary and media communities cringe, as he takes aim at the relentless anti-Trump fixation, coastal elites, corporate censorship, Hollywood, identity politics, Generation Wuss, "woke" cultural watchdogs, the obfuscation of ideals once both cherished and clear, and the fugue state of American democracy. In a young century marked by hysterical correctness and obsessive fervency on both sides of an aisle that's taken on the scale of the Grand Canyon, White is a clarion call for freedom of speech and artistic freedom.

"The central tension in Ellis's art--or his life, for that matter--is that while [his] aesthetic is the cool reserve of his native California, detachment over ideology, he can't stop generating heat.... He's hard-wired to break furniture."--Karen Heller, The Washington Post

"Sweating with rage . . . humming with paranoia."--Anna Leszkiewicz, The Guardian

"Snowflakes on both coasts in withdrawal from Rachel Maddow's nightly Kremlinology lesson can purchase a whole book to inspire paroxysms of rage . . . a veritable thirst trap for the easily microaggressed. It's all here. Rants about Trump derangement syndrome; MSNBC; #MeToo; safe spaces."--Bari Weiss, The New York Times
About the Author: Bret Easton Ellis nació en Los Ángeles en 1964. Al acabar el instituto, decidió abandonar el Oeste y viajar a Nueva Inglaterra para estudiar en la Universidad de Bennington. Alentado por sus profesores, durante su último año de universidad, Ellis completó la que sería su primera novela, Menos que cero (Literatura Random House, 2010; el título está inspirado en una canción de Elvis Costello), que cosechó el aplauso de la crítica y se convirtió en libro de culto. Cuando en 1992 publicó American Psycho, el retrato de un ejecutivo psicópata, se confirmó que había nacido una estrella. También es autor de Las leyes de la atracción (2002), Los confidentes (1994), Glamourama (1999), Lunar Park (LRH, 2006), Suites imperiales (LRH, 2010) y Blanco (LRH, 2020).
