Tras trece a�os de silencio literario, regresa el mejor Bret Easton Ellis con una novela monumental. En la lista de los mejores libros del 2023 de Babelia �Un juego de espejos brillante, elegante y demon�aco que te mantiene en vilo hasta el final.El mejor libro de Bret Easton Ellis, el que est�bamos esperando, el que nos deb�a. Una obra maestra�. -Luc�a Lijtmaer Los �ngeles, 1981. A sus diecisiete a�os, Bret est� a punto de empezar su �ltimo curso de secundaria en Buckley junto a su exclusivo y sofisticado grupo de amigos: Thom, Susan y Debbie, novia de Bret, experimentan con el sexo, el alcohol y las drogas mientras aprovechan los �ltimos d�as de verano. Pero este sue�o paradisiaco se desmorona con la llegada de un nuevo alumno: Robert Mallory es brillante, guapo y carism�tico, pero algo en �l no encaja, y nadie m�s que Bret parece darse cuenta de que ese algo podr�a estar relacionado con la aparici�n del Arrastrero, un asesino en serie que amenaza a los adolescentes de la ciudad y a sus mascotas. El autor de American Psycho y Menos que cero nos brinda un emocionante y provocador viaje a su yo adolescente, un viaje cargado de un insaciable deseo sexual y de celos, obsesi�n y rabia asesina. Los destrozos es una absorbente historia sobre la p�rdida de la inocencia y el complicado paso a la vida adulta, y tambi�n un v�vido y nost�lgico retrato de la d�cada de los ochenta; una narraci�n recorrida por el suspense, el terror, el erotismo y el inconfundible humor negro caracter�sticos de un autor que es el s�mbolo de toda una generaci�n. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Listed on Babelia's Best Books of 2023 NEW YORK TIMES BEST SELLER - A novel of sensational literary and psychological suspense from the best-selling author of Less Than Zero and American Psycho that tracks a group of privileged high school friends in a vibrantly fictionalized 1980s, Los Angeles, as a serial killer strike across the city "A thrilling page-turner from Ellis, who revisits the world that made him a literary star with a stylish scary new story that doesn't disappoint."- Town & Country Bret Easton Ellis's masterful new novel is a story about the end of innocence, and the perilous passage from adolescence into adulthood, set in a vibrantly fictionalized Los Angeles in 1981 as a serial killer begins targeting teenagers throughout the city. Seventeen-year-old Bret is a senior at the exclusive Buckley Prep School when a new student arrives with a mysterious past. Robert Mallory is bright, handsome, charismatic, and shielding a secret from Bret and his friends--even as he becomes a part of their tightly knit circle. Bret's obsession with Mallory is equaled only by his increasingly unsettling preoccupation with the Trawler, a serial killer on the loose who seems to be drawing ever closer to Bret and his friends, taunting them--and Bret in particular--with grotesque threats and horrific, sharply local acts of violence. The coincidences are uncanny, but they are also filtered through the imagination of a teenager whose gifts for constructing a narrative from the filaments of his own life are about to make him one of the most explosive literary sensations of his generation. Can he trust his friends--or his own mind--to make sense of the danger they appear to be in? Thwarted by the world and by his own innate desires, and buffeted by unhealthy fixations, he spirals into paranoia and isolation as the relationship between the Trawler and Robert Mallory hurtles inexorably toward a collision. Set against the intensely vivid and nostalgic backdrop of pre- Less Than Zero L.A., The Shards is a mesmerizing fusing of fact and fiction, the real and the imagined that brilliantly explores the emotional fabric
