Lunar Park Notes

lunar park, The Most Sexless Book ellis has ever written,


Taking Narrative Control

you know how in AP patrick is always in a car being driven by someone else because he’s directionless and has no real control over his life. and in lunar park, where he’s responsible of where the story goes, he’s in the front seat


Staying In The Fire

lunar park’s version of bateman bringing his own wanted demise through a confession through a telephone.. his downfall/capture that he had wanted so badly in american psycho, is finally brought upon him

the ending ellis writes for him also fits: bateman stands on a burning pier but chooses to stay in the fire


this is lunar park. to me
