It starts out inauspiciously with Ellis bragging about and quoting from his earlier novels. It then goes into a long, breathless account of his rise to the A -list stratosphere of glam and its excesses, belief-straining excesses. Another fairly long section chronicles his descent into serial rehab. After that, the book kind of falls apart. Paragraphs turn into lonely sentences about the wreckage and his painful attempts to save a crumbling marriage and finally connect to his son. But he's mostly aware he's too far gone now to make the connections. The way up was exciting. The way down, less so. Such is life. > Babelio : https://www.babelio.com/livres/Ellis-Lunar-Park/4612 > BAnQ (Desmeules C., Le devoir, 17 déc. 2005, F-1 et F-4) : https://collections.banq.qc.ca/ark:/52327/2816910 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

Stellen Sie sich dann vor, Sie bekommen eine zweite Chance - so wie der Romanheld Bret Easton Ellis in "Lunar Park". vt Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Anyone who knows me knows I'm not a fan of horror at all. And this novel was absolutely horrifying. But also so well-written and with so many layers that reading it was an odd pleasure. I have to admire an author who can sink a story beneath so many layers of narrative that the reader has a hard time finding truth OR lies in the pages.
I would definitely recommend this read. If for no other reason than to admire its experimental structure and provocative prose! But be warned - it really is terrifying. ( )
